Reinforcement Learning with Iterative Reasoning for Merging in Dense Traffic

To avoid the computational requirements of online methods, we can use reinforcement learning (RL) instead. In RL, In recent years, major progress has been made to deploy the agent interacts with a simulation environment many autonomous vehicles and improve safety. However, certain times prior to execution, and at each simulation episode common driving situations like merging in dense traffic are it improves its strategy. The resulting policy can then be still challenging for autonomous vehicles. Situations like deployed online and is often inexpensive to evaluate. RL the one illustrated in Figure 1 often involve negotiating with provides a flexible framework to automatically find good human drivers.
