摘要

资源优化问题广泛存在于社会、经济的运转中，积累了海量的数据，给强化学习技术在这一领域的应用奠定了基础。由于资源优化问题覆盖广泛，从覆盖广泛的资源优化问题中划分出3类重要问题，即资源平衡问题、资源分配问题和装箱问题。并围绕这3类问题总结强化学习技术的最新研究工作，围绕各研究工作的问题建模、智能体设计等方面展开详细阐述。

Abstract

Resource optimization is an important problem that widely exists in the social operation and economic development.There is massive data accumulated in this field which has laid the foundation for more and more application of reinforcement learning.Due to the wide coverage of resource optimization problems

three important problems from the wide range of resource optimization problems were categorized and chosen

namely resource balancing problem

resource allocation problem

and bin packing problem.The problem formulation and the reinforcement learning agent modeling of these three types of problems were introduced in detail.
