Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and devices for generating a visualization of a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) process. State data is received, reflective of states of an environment explored by an DRL agent, each state corresponding to a time step. For each given state, saliency metrics are calculated by processing the state data, each metric measuring saliency of a feature at the time step corresponding to the given state. A graphical visualization is generated, having at least two dimensions in which: each feature of the environment is graphically represented along a first axis; and each time step is represented along a second axis; and a plurality of graphical markers representing corresponding saliency metrics, each graphical marker having a size commensurate with the magnitude of the particular saliency metric represented, and a location along the first and second axes corresponding to the feature and time step for the particular saliency metric.

Abstract: Systems are methods are provided for facilitating explainability of decision-making by reinforcement learning agents. A reinforcement learning agent is instantiated which generates, via a function approximation representation, learned outputs governing its decision-making. Data records of a plurality of past inputs for the agent are stored, each of the past inputs including values of a plurality of state variables. Data records of a plurality of past learned outputs of the agent are also stored. A group definition data structure defining groups of the state variables are received. For a given past input a given group, data generated reflective of a perturbed input by altering a value of at least one state variable is generated, and are presented to the reinforcement learning agent to obtain a perturbed learned output generated by the reinforcement learning agent; and a distance metric is generated reflective of a magnitude of difference between the perturbed learned output and the past learned output.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and devices for training a learning agent. A learning agent that maintains a reinforcement learning neural network is instantiated. State data reflective of a state of an environment explored by the learning agent is received. An uncertainty metric calculated upon processing the state data, the uncertainty metric measuring epistemic uncertainty of the learning agent. Upon determining that the uncertainty metric exceeds a pre-defined threshold: a request signal requesting an action suggestion from a demonstrator is sent; a suggestion signal reflective of the action suggestion is received; and an action signal to implement the action suggestion is sent.
