Direct load control of thermostatically controlled loads based on sparse observations using deep reinforcement learning

This paper considers a demand response agent that must find a near-optimal sequence of decisions based on sparse observations of its environment. Extracting a relevant set of features from these observations is a challenging task and may require substantial domain knowledge. One way to tackle this p...
