MATLAB-RL-Agent_with_SimEvent​s

Example of how to integrate an Agent of the MATLAB Reinforcement Learning Toolbox in a Discrete Event Simulation using SimEvents.

MATLAB-RL-Agent_with_SimEvents

Overview

This is an example of using the Q-Agent from the MATLAB Reinforcement Learning Toolbox with a discrete-event-based SimEvents model. It shows a procedure that makes it possible to use the agent in an event-driven manner. It can also be transferred to other agents in the toolbox.

The Simulink model is structured using the concept of Experimental Frame. Please refer to the following publications:
