Abstract

This letter proposes a learning-based bounded synthesis for a semi-Markov decision process (SMDP) with a linear temporal logic (LTL) specification. In the product of the SMDP and the deterministic K-co-Büchi automaton (dKcBA) converted from the LTL specification, we learn both the winning region of satisfying the LTL specification and the dynamics therein based on reinforcement learning and Bayesian inference. Then, we synthesize an optimal policy satisfying the following two conditions. (1) It maximizes the probability of reaching the wining region. (2) It minimizes a long-term risk for the dwell time within the winning region. The minimization of the long-term risk is done based on the estimated dynamics and a value iteration. We show that, if the discount factor is sufficiently close to one, the synthesized policy converges to the optimal policy as the number of the data obtained by the exploration goes to the infinity.
