Policy gradient methods are a powerful family of reinforcement learning algorithms for continuous control that optimize a policy directly. However, standard first-order methods often converge slowly. Second-order methods can accelerate learning by using curvature information, but they are typically expensive to compute...
Digital twin (DT) technologies, tightly coupled with Industry 4.0 methodologies, are emerging as fundamental enablers for innovation and optimization in renewable and low-carbon energy systems. Unlike traditional offline simulation, DTs support a live, bidirectional connection to physical assets and networks, enablin...

This study aims to analyze the strategies employed by Al-Qur’an and Hadith teachers to improve students’ memorization of short surah and to identify the factors that hinder their implementation at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah An Najah Haur Kuning, Banjar Regency, South Kalimantan. This study employed a qualitative approach with...
A fundamental problem in reinforcement learning is the trade-off between exploration and exploitation. The quality of the final policy is not the only factor that varies with different exploration strategies, so do learning speed and result stability. Based on Q-learning, this study compares three exploration strategie...

Abstract Calibration of field instruments—such as pressure transmitters, flow meters, temperature sensors, and vibration sensors—is essential for accurate measurements and safe industrial operations. In practice, calibration steps are embedded within governed method statements for assets like PLC/BMS panels, BTU meters...

Underwater quantum communication (UQC) has emerged as a promising approach for secure information transfer in oceanic environments by exploiting fundamental quantum mechanical principles. However, realizing UQC in practice remains highly challenging due to the inherently dynamic nature of the underwater optical channel...
Abstract Objectives/Scope Blowout Preventers (BOPs) are the final and most critical line of defense in maintaining well control, yet conventional elastomeric sealing elements experience rapid degradation when exposed to HPHT environments, corrosive fluids, and abrasive cuttings. This degradation increases the probabili...
A growing corpus of experimental research demonstrates that neuroimaging data can be leveraged to improve the performance of artificial intelligence models, including reinforcement learning models in robotics. However, most existing studies have focused on vision, audition, language, or reward and error signals recorde...

Students in MIT’s Concourse program delve deeply into the human condition, debate challenging questions, and learn to develop judgment about issues that can’t be quantified.
Training AI agents with reinforcement learning can be challenging because their tools, context, and decision-making are managed by complex frameworks. Agent Lightning connects existing agents to RL training, making it easier to improve them without rebuilding them. The post Agent Lightning v1.0: A 3,500-Line Lightweight Agentic RL Framework for Training Agents with Real Harnesses appeared first on Microsoft Research.
