高效交通信号控制对城市出行至关重要,但传统系统难以应对真实交通复杂性。多智能体强化学习(MARL)虽具自适应潜力,但在线训练需大量环境交互,成本高昂。离线MARL利用历史数据训练,却面临真实数据中行为策略异质性问题,混合质量数据阻碍学习。本文提出OffLight,一种专为交通信号控制设计的离线多智能体强化学习框架。通过重要性采样(IS)校正分布偏移,结合基于回报的优先采样(RBPS)聚焦高质量经验。采用高斯混合变分图自编码器(GMM-VGAE)从局部观测中捕捉行为策略的多元分布。在多个真实城市交通场景的实验表明,OffLight优于现有离线强化学习方法,平均行程时间降低7.8%,队列长度减少11.2%。消融实验验证各组件对异质数据处理与策略性能提升的有效性。结果表明,OffLight具备良好可扩展性,可在无在线学习风险下改善城市交通管理。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Efficient traffic control (TSC) is essential for urban mobility, but traditional systems struggle to handle the complexity of real-world traffic. Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) offers adaptive solutions, but online MARL requires extensive interactions with the environment, making it costly and impractical. Offline MARL mitigates these challenges by using historical traffic data for training but faces significant difficulties with heterogeneous behavior policies in real-world datasets, where mixed-quality data complicates learning. We introduce OffLight, a novel offline MARL framework designed to handle heterogeneous behavior policies in TSC datasets. To improve learning efficiency, OffLight incorporates Importance Sampling (IS) to correct for distributional shifts and Return-Based Prioritized Sampling (RBPS) to focus on high-quality experiences. OffLight utilizes a Gaussian Mixture Variational Graph Autoencoder (GMM-VGAE) to capture the diverse distribution of behavior policies from local observations. Extensive experiments across real-world urban traffic scenarios show that OffLight outperforms existing offline RL methods, achieving up to a 7.8% reduction in average travel time and 11.2% decrease in queue length. Ablation studies confirm the effectiveness of OffLight's components in handling heterogeneous data and improving policy performance. These results highlight OffLight's scalability and potential to improve urban traffic management without the risks of online learning.
