Reduction of thin volume assemblies using reinforcement learning

A system for reducing thin volume assemblies and generating sheet bodies using reinforcement learning, the system comprising:

• a storage device configured to store program instructions;
• and
• one or more processors operably connected to the storage device and configured to execute the program instructions to cause the system to:
• establish respective agents for thin volumes;
• select actions for reducing the thin volumes;
• assign initial rewards to the actions for each agent;
• execute the selected actions by the agents;
• assign rewards to the selected actions based on a reward policy;
• and
• continue the reinforcement learning until at least one stopping criterion is met.

A computer program product for reducing thin volume assemblies and generating sheet bodies using reinforcement learning, the computer program product comprising:

• a computer-readable storage medium having program instructions embodied thereon to perform the steps of:
• establishing respective agents for thin volumes;
• selecting actions for reducing the thin volumes;
• assigning initial rewards to the actions for each agent,
• executing the selected actions by the agents;
• assigning rewards to the selected actions based on a reward policy;
• and
• continuing the reinforcement learning until at least one stopping criterion is met.
