Learning board games by self-play has a long tradition in computational intelligence for games. Based on Tesauro’s seminal success with TD-Gammon in 1994, many successful agents use temporal difference learning today. But in order to be successful with temporal difference learning on game tasks, often a careful selection of features and a large number of training games is necessary. Even for board games of moderate complexity like Connect-4, we found in previous work that a very rich initial feature set and several millions of game plays are required. In this work we investigate different approaches of online-adaptable learning rates like Incremental Delta Bar Delta (IDBD) or Temporal Coherence Learning (TCL) whether they have the potential to speed up learning for such a complex task. We propose a new variant of TCL with geometric step size changes. We compare those algorithms with several other state-of-the-art learning rate adaptation algorithms and perform a case study on the sensitivity with respect to their meta parameters. We show that in this set of learning algorithms those with geometric step size changes outperform those other algorithms with constant step size changes. Algorithms with nonlinear output functions are slightly better than linear ones. Algorithms with geometric step size changes learn faster by a factor of 4 as compared to previously published results on the task Connect-4.
Evolutionary algorithm (EA) is an umbrella term used to describe population-based stochastic direct search algorithms that in some sense mimic natural evolution. Prominent representatives of such algorithms are genetic algorithms, evolution strategies, evolutionary programming, and genetic programming. On the basis of the evolutionary cycle, similarities and differences between these algorithms are described. We briefly discuss how EAs can be adapted to work well in case of multiple objectives, and dynamic or noisy optimization problems. We look at the tuning of algorithms and present some recent developments coming from theory. Finally, typical applications of EAs to real-world problems are shown, with special emphasis on data-mining applications
Sequential Parameter Optimization is a model-based optimization methodology, which includes several techniques for handling uncertainty. Simple approaches such as sharp- ening and more sophisticated approaches such as optimal computing budget allocation are available. For many real world engineering problems, the objective function can be evaluated at different levels of fidelity. For instance, a CFD simulation might provide a very time consuming but accurate way to estimate the quality of a solution.The same solution could be evaluated based on simplified mathematical equations, leading to a cheaper but less accurate estimate. Combining these different levels of fidelity in a model-based optimization process is referred to as multi-fidelity optimization. This chapter describes uncertainty-handling techniques for meta-model based search heuristics in combination with multi-fidelity optimization. Co-Kriging is one power- ful method to correlate multiple sets of data from different levels of fidelity. For the first time, Sequential Parameter Optimization with co-Kriging is applied to noisy test functions. This study will introduce these techniques and discuss how they can be applied to real-world examples.
Cyclone Dust Separators are devices often used to filter solid particles from flue gas. Such cyclones are supposed to filter as much solid particles from the carrying gas as possible. At the same time, they should only introduce a minimal pressure loss to the system. Hence, collection efficiency has to be maximized and pressure loss minimized. Both the collection efficiency and pressure loss are heavily influenced by the cyclones geometry. In this paper, we optimize seven geometrical parameters of an analytical cyclone model. Furthermore, noise variables are introduced to the model, representing the non-deterministic structure of the real-world problem. This is used to investigate robustness and sensitivity of solutions. Both the deterministic as well as the stochastic model are optimized with an SMS-EMOA. The SMS-EMOA is compared to a single objective optimization algorithm. For the harder, stochastic optimization problem, a surrogate-model-supported SMS-EMOA is compared against the model-free SMS-EMOA. The model supported approach yields better solutions with the same run-time budget.
SOMA - Systematische Optimierung von Modellen in IT- und Automatisierungstechnik (Schlussbericht)
(2013)
Das im Rahmen der Förderlinie IngenieurNachwuchs geförderte Forschungsvorhaben Systematische Optimierung von Modellen für Informations- und Automatisierungs-technik (kurz: SOMA) startete im August 2009. Eine wesentliche Zielsetzung war die Entwicklung und Optimierung von Modellen zur Prognose von Zielgrößen. Ein wichtiges Merkmal ist dabei die effiziente Optimierung dieser Modelle, welche es ermöglichen soll, mit einer streng limitierten Anzahl an Auswertungen gute Parametereinstellungen zu bestimmen. Mithilfe dieser genaueren Parametrierungen der unterliegenden Modelle können unter Einbeziehung neuer merkmalserzeugender Verfahren insbesondere für kleine und mittelständische Unternehmen verbesserte Lösungen erzielt werden. Als direkter Gewinn derartiger Verbesserungen konnte für KMUs ein geeignetes Framework für Modellierungs- und Prognoseaufgaben be- reitgestellt werden, sodass mit geringem technischem und personellen Aufwand performante und nahezu optimale Lösungen erzielt werden können. Dieser Schluss-bericht beschreibt die im Projekt durchgeführten Maßnahmen und Ergebnisse.
This paper introduces UniFIeD, a new data preprocessing method for time series. UniFIeD can cope with large intervals of missing data. A scalable test function generator, which allows the simulation of time series with different gap sizes, is presented additionally. An experimental study demonstrates that (i) UniFIeD shows a significant better performance than simple imputation methods and (ii) UniFIeD is able to handle situations, where advanced imputation methods fail. The results are independent from the underlying error measurements.
