报告简介:We study a resource allocation problem with varying requests and with resources of limited capacity shared by multiple requests. It is modeled as a set of heterogeneous restless multiarmed bandit problems (RMABPs) connected by constraints imposed by resource capacity. Following Whittle’s relaxation idea and Weber and Weiss’ asymptotic optimality proof, we propose a simple policy and prove it to be asymptotically optimal in a regime where both arrival rates and capacities increase. We provide a simple sufficient condition for asymptotic optimality of the policy and, in complete generality, propose a method that generates a set of candidate policies for which asymptotic optimality can be checked. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work providing asymptotic optimality results for such a resource allocation problem and such a combination of multiple RMABPs. On the other hand, in many RMABPs, computation of asymptotically optime policies requires knowledge of the transition matrices of the underlying processes, which are sometimes hidden from decision makers. We take first steps towards a tractable and efficient reinforcement learning algorithm for controlling such a system. We setup parallel Q-learning recursions, with each recursion mapping to individual possible values of the Whittle index.
