Centralized Reinforcement Learning

Centralized reinforcement learning (CRL) addresses the challenges of coordinating multiple agents or components within a system to achieve a common goal, overcoming limitations of fully decentralized approaches. Current research focuses on developing efficient CRL algorithms, including variations of deep Q-networks and actor-critic methods, often tailored to specific applications like traffic control and wireless network optimization. This approach is significant because it enables effective control in complex, large-scale systems where decentralized methods struggle, leading to improved performance and resource management in various domains.
