Description
Summary:Deep reinforcement learning has strong abilities of decision-making and generalization and often applies to the quality of service (QoS) optimization in software defined network (SDN).However, traditional deep reinforcement learning algorithms have problems such as slow convergence and instability.An algorithm of quality of service optimization algorithm of based on deep reinforcement learning (AQSDRL) was proposed to solve the QoS problem of SDN in the data center network (DCN) applications.AQSDRL introduces the softmax deep double deterministic policy gradient (SD3) algorithm for model training, and a SumTree-based prioritized empirical replay mechanism was used to optimize the SD3 algorithm.The samples with more significant temporal-difference error (TD-error) were extracted with higher probability to train the neural network, effectively improving the convergence speed and stability of the algorithm.The experimental results show that the proposed AQSDRL effectively reduces the network transmission delay and improves the load balancing performance of the network than the existing deep reinforcement learning algorithms.
