Overhead line path planning based on deep reinforcement learning and geographical information system by Jiahui Chen, Yi Yang, Ling Peng, Lina Yang, Yinhui Han, Xingtong Ge

“…This paper explores a new approach DSOP (Deep reinforcement learning Soft actor-critic Overhead route Planning) that utilizes the interaction between an agent and the environment to adapt to different environments and planning tasks. This approach is mainly based on an assumption: the process of overhead line planning is a continuous trial-and-error process, and a relatively reasonable path can eventually be obtained through the continuous optimization of multiple objectives while meeting constraint conditions. …”
