报告摘要：Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is a combination of reinforcement learning (RL) and deep learning. This field of research has been able to solve a wide range of complex decision-making tasks that were previously out of reach for a machine. Thus, DRL opens up many new applications in domains such as video games, healthcare, robotics, smart grids, finance, and many more. In this talk, I will show you the application of DRL in wireless networking and beyond.

Imagine a wireless medium-access control (MAC) protocol that can learn the best strategy to exploit the time-spectrum resources. It can co-exist harmoniously with a mix of different legacy wireless networks, such as cellular networks, Wi-Fi and ZigBee. Furthermore, it can achieve optimal performance without knowing the details of the MAC protocols of the other networks – i.e., it does not need to know the operating principles of other co-existing MAC protocols; yet it can achieve optimal performance as if it knew how these protocols work. Such a “universal MAC protocol” does not exist today. I will try to convince you that DRL may hold the key to such universal MAC protocols through this talk. We conclude this talk by sharing some tips on DRL.
