• Abstract: Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has attracted much attention as an approach to solve sequential decision making problems without mathematical models of systems or environments. In general, a constraint may be imposed on the decision making. In this study, we consider the optimal decision making problems with constraints to complete temporal high-level tasks in the continuous state-action domain. We describe the constraints using signal temporal logic (STL), which is useful for time sensitive control tasks since it can specify continuous signals within a bounded time interval. To deal with the STL constraints, we introduce an extended constrained Markov decision process (CMDP), which is called a $\tau$-CMDP. We formulate the STL constrained optimal decision making problem as the $\tau$-CMDP and propose a two-phase constrained DRL algorithm using the Lagrangian relaxation method. Through simulations, we also demonstrate the learning performance of the proposed algorithm.

• DeepLTL: Learning to Efficiently Satisfy Complex LTL Specifications [59.01527054553122]
  Linear temporal logic (LTL) has recently been adopted as a powerful formalism for specifying complex, temporally extended tasks in reinforcement learning (RL) Existing approaches suffer from several shortcomings: they are often only applicable to finite-horizon fragments, are restricted to suboptimal solutions, and do not adequately handle safety constraints. In this work, we propose a novel learning approach to address these concerns. Our method leverages the structure of B"uchia, which explicitly represent the semantics of automat- specifications, to learn policies conditioned on sequences of truth assignments that lead to satisfying the desired formulae.

The effectiveness of TS-GDR is demonstrated through an instantiation using Deep Recurrent Neural Networks named Two-Stage Deep Decision Rules (TS-LDR)
