Deep reinforcement learning for solving the joint scheduling problem of machines and AGVs in job shop
Aiming at the joint scheduling problem of automated guided vehicle(AGV)and machines in the job shop,an integrated algorithm framework based on convolutional neural network and deep reinforcement learning is proposed with the goal of minimizing the completion time.Firstly,the job shop scheduling disjunction graph containing an AGV is analyzed,and the problem is transformed into a sequential decision problem,which is expressed as the Markov decision process.Then,according to the solving characteristics of the problem,a spatial state and five direct state features based on the disjunctive graph are designed.In the setting of the action space,a two-dimensional action space including process selection and AGV assignment is designed.According to the characteristics of fixed value of processing time and effective transportation time in the work workshop,a reward function is constructed to guide the agent to learn.Finally,a 2D-PPO algorithm for two-dimensional action space is designed for training and learning to quickly respond to the joint scheduling decision of the AGV and machine.Through case verification,the scheduling algorithm based on the 2D-PPO algorithm has good learning performance and scalability effect.
