Reinforcement Learning-based VANET simulations

Summary

Machine Learning is becoming ever more popular in many application domains, including vehicular networking. It has been shown already that Intelligent Transportation Systems can greatly benefit from this approach, particularly from Reinforcement Learning (RL). To implement Vehicular Ad-hoc Network environments for RL training, researchers often start from scratch, because up until now, there is neither an established interface to ML toolkits nor a common scenario for VANET applications. We developed Veins-Gym to provide this tooling.

Veins-Gym exports Veins simulations as Open AI Gyms. This enables the application of Reinforcement Learning algorithms to solve problems in the VANET domain, in particular popular frameworks such as Tensorflow or PyTorch.
