Accelerating fusion science through learned plasma control
DeepMind released a paper last week on their research that applies Deep Reinforcement Learning (Deep RL) to control tokamak nuclear fusion reactors. For a bit of background: Deep RL trains a neural network that can make sequences of decisions in order to optimize some objective. Tokamak f…
