Patent number: 12017148Abstract: A user interface (UI), for analyzing model training runs, tracking and visualizing various aspects of machine learning experiments, can be used when training an artificial intelligent agent in, for example, a racing game environment. The UI can be web-based and can allow researchers to easily see the status of their experiments. The UI can include an experiment synchronized event viewer that can synchronizes visualizations, videos, and timeline/metrics graphs in the experiment. This viewer allows researchers to see how experiments unfold in great detail. The UI can further include experiment event annotations that can generate event annotations. These annotations can be displayed via the synchronized event viewer. The UI can be used to consider consolidated results across experiments and can further consider videos. For example, the UI can provide a reusable dashboard that can capture and compare metrics across multiple experiments.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2022Date of Patent: June 25, 2024Assignee: SONY GROUP CORPORATIONInventors: Rory Douglas, Dion Whitehead, Leon Barrett, Piyush Khandelwal, Thomas Walsh, Samuel Barrett, Kaushik Subramanian, James MacGlashan, Leilani Gilpin, Peter Wurman

Publication number: 20230368041Abstract: Experience replay (ER) is an important component of many deep reinforcement learning (RL) systems. However, uniform sampling from an ER buffer can lead to slow convergence and unstable asymptotic behaviors. Stratified Sampling from Event Tables (SSET), which partitions an ER buffer into Event Tables, each capturing important subsequences of optimal behavior. A theoretical advantage is proven over the traditional monolithic buffer approach and the combination of SSET with an existing prioritized sampling strategy can further improve learning speed and stability. Empirical results in challenging MiniGrid domains, benchmark RL environments, and a high-fidelity car racing simulator demonstrate the advantages and versatility of SSET over existing ER buffer sampling approaches.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 6, 2023Publication date: November 16, 2023Inventors: Varun Kompella, Thomas Walsh, Samuel Barrett, Peter Wurman, Peter Stone
