A Multitask-Based Transfer Framework for Cooperative Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning by Cheng Hu, Chenxu Wang, Weijun Luo, Chaowen Yang, Liuyu Xiang, Zhaofeng He

“…However, existing knowledge transfer-based methods only focus on strategies or agent-level knowledge in a single task, and the transfer of knowledge in such a specific task to new and different types of tasks is likely to fail. In this paper, we propose a multitask-based training framework termed MTT in cooperative MARL, which aims to learn shared collaborative knowledge across multiple tasks simultaneously and then apply it to solve other related tasks. …”

Measuring carbonate dissolution rates under well-controlled conditions for reactive CO2-water flow in a large lab-scale karst fracture imitate by Bettina Strauch, Martin Zimmer, Kai Wendel, Leon Keim, Holger Class

“…Process water with no CO2 addition, 50% CO2-saturation and full CO2-saturation were used, to gain insight into the dissolution efficiency at these CO2-saturation levels. The results showed, that the effects of different CO2 additions were well reflected in the limestone dissolution rates.This setup provides important experimental data for the validation of numerical models for reactive transport in karst systems, to improve the understanding of the interplay between chemical reactions, fluid dynamics and geological settings.The findings have implications for karst hydrology, geochemical modeling related subsurface processes, supporting advancements in predictive capabilities for natural and engineered systems.…”
