Reinforcement Learning (Self-Optimization)
Reinforcement Learning (RL) enables agents in the Aether Framework to adapt and optimize their behavior based on past experiences. By continuously learning from their environment, agents can improve decision-making and task execution efficiency.
Key Features
Dynamic Adaptation Agents adjust their actions based on rewards and penalties from their environment.
Q-Learning Algorithm Aether uses Q-Learning, a popular reinforcement learning algorithm, to optimize agent behavior.
Exploration vs. Exploitation Agents balance between exploring new actions and exploiting known successful actions.
Example Workflow
Initialize the RL Agent
from src.utils.reinforcement_learning import QLearning # Define state and action space sizes state_size = 5 action_size = 3 # Initialize Q-Learning agent rl_agent = QLearning(state_size, action_size)
Optimize Task Execution
# Define the current state (example: 5-dimensional vector) state = [1, 0, 0, 1, 0] # Choose an action based on the current state action = rl_agent.choose_action(state) # Execute the action and get a reward reward = agent.execute_action(action) # Get the next state next_state = agent.get_environment_state() # Update the Q-table rl_agent.update_q_table(state, action, reward, next_state) rl_agent.decay_exploration()
Execute Actions
def execute_action(self, action): if action == 0: print("Executing Task A") return 1 # Reward for Task A elif action == 1: print("Executing Task B") return 2 # Reward for Task B elif action == 2: print("Executing Task C") return 1 # Reward for Task C return 0 # No reward for invalid actions
Benefits of RL in Aether
Self-Optimization Agents continuously improve task performance without external intervention.
Adaptability RL allows agents to respond to changing environments dynamically.
Scalability RL-powered agents can autonomously optimize even in large-scale, decentralized systems.
Best Practices
Define Clear Rewards Ensure the reward system aligns with desired outcomes (e.g., prioritize collaboration over solo tasks).
Monitor Exploration Rate Gradually reduce exploration to focus on exploiting successful strategies.
Integrate with Other Modules Combine RL with swarm consensus and blockchain logging for robust agent behavior.

Reinforcement Learning (RL) empowers agents in the Aether Framework to self-optimize task execution dynamically. By using a Q-learning approach, agents adapt their behavior based on rewards and penalties, improving efficiency over time.
Features
Reward System: Agents learn from task outcomes and adjust strategies.
Dynamic Adaptation: Continuous learning and optimization of decision-making.
Q-learning Integration: Implements reinforcement learning with exploration and exploitation balance.
How It Works
State and Action: The agent evaluates its environment (state) and chooses an action.
Rewards: The agent receives rewards for successful actions or penalties for failures.
Q-Table Updates: The Q-learning algorithm updates the agent's decision-making table.
Exploration Decay: Agents balance exploring new strategies and exploiting learned ones.
Example Code
from src.agents.ai_agent import AIAgent
agent = AIAgent(agent_id=1, role="optimizer", provider="openai", base_url="https://api.openai.com")
# Simulate task execution and optimization
for episode in range(10): # Run multiple optimization episodes
state = agent.get_environment_state()
print(f"Episode {episode}: Current state: {state}")
agent.optimize_task_execution(state)
