Learning method and learning device for supporting reinforcement learning by using human driving data as training data to thereby perform personalized path planning

Abstract

A learning method for acquiring at least one personalized reward function, used for performing a Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithm, corresponding to a personalized optimal policy for a subject driver is provided. And the method includes steps of: (a) a learning device performing a process of instructing an adjustment reward network to generate first adjustment rewards, by referring to the information on actual actions and actual circumstance vectors in driving trajectories, a process of instructing a common reward module to generate first common rewards by referring to the actual actions and the actual circumstance vectors, and a process of instructing an estimation network to generate actual prospective values by referring to the actual circumstance vectors; and (b) the learning device instructing a first loss layer to generate an adjustment reward and to perform backpropagation to learn parameters of the adjustment reward network.
