Title
Large-scale and adaptive service composition based on deep reinforcement learning.
Abstract
Service composition is a research hotspot with practical value. With the development of Web service, many Web services with the same functional attributes emerge. However, service composition optimization is still a big challenge since the complex and unstable composition environment. To solve this problem, we propose an adaptive service composition based on deep reinforcement learning, where recurrent neural network (RNN) is utilized for predicting the objective function, improving its expression and generalization ability, and effectively solving the shortcomings of traditional reinforcement learning in the face of large-scale or continuous state space problems. We leverage heuristic behavior selection strategy to divide the state set into hidden state and fully visible state. Effective simulation of hidden state space and fully visible state of the evaluation function can further improve the accuracy and efficiency of the combined results. We conduct comprehensive experiment and experimental results have shown the effectiveness of our method.
