Abstract
The techniques disclosed herein enable systems to enhance the resilience of autonomous control systems through a fault-tolerant machine learning architecture. To achieve this, a fault-tolerant machine learning agent is constructed with a selector agent, a nominal agent, and a redundancy agent which is a multidimensional lookup table. The fault-tolerant machine learning agent extracts state data from an environment containing a control system and various components. The nominal agent and the redundancy agent generate actions for application to the control system based on the state data which are provided to the selector agent. Based on an analysis of the state data, the selector agent can detect a failure condition. In the event of a failure condition, the selector agent deploys the action generated by the redundancy agent lookup table to resolve the failure condition and restore normal operations.
