PRESENTATION: Continual Reinforcement Learning for Intelligent Agricultural Management under Climate Changes

ABSTRACT:  Climate change poses significant challenges to agricultural management, particularly in adapting to extreme weather conditions that impact agricultural production. Existing works with traditional Reinforcement Learning (RL) methods often falter under such extreme conditions. This seminar will introduce a novel approach by integrating Continual Learning (CL) with RL to form Continual Reinforcement Learning (CRL), enhancing the adaptability of agricultural management strategies.
