Designing a Multi-Objective Reward Function for Creating Teams of Robotic Bodyguards Using Deep Reinforcement Learning

28 Jan 2019  ·  Hassam Ullah Sheikh, Ladislau Bölöni ·

We are considering a scenario where a team of bodyguard robots provides physical protection to a VIP in a crowded public space. We use deep reinforcement learning to learn the policy to be followed by the robots. As the robot bodyguards need to follow several difficult-to-reconcile goals, we study several primitive and composite reward functions and their impact on the overall behavior of the robotic bodyguards.
