Explaining Reinforcement Learning Decisions in Self-adaptive Systems

Excerpt

arXiv:2608.14620v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement Learning (RL) has been extensively used in autonomous and self-* systems, but RL policies, especially deep RL ones relying on neural networks, lack transparency and are difficult to understand. This can lead to diminished user trust, and makes for a more challenging verification of systems. To address this challenge, this paper introduces Explanations using Alternative Realities for Reinforcement Learning (EARL), a Python library to
