Physics Informed Reinforcement Learning with Gibbs Priors for Topology Control in Power Grids

Description

Topology control for power grid operation is a challenging sequential decision making problem because the action space grows combinatorially with the size of the grid and action evaluation through simulation is computationally expensive. We propose a physics-informed Reinforcement Learning framework that combines semi-Markov control with a Gibbs prior, that encodes the system's physics, over the action space. The decision is only taken when the grid enters a hazardous regime, while a graph neura
