Dynamic flexible job shop scheduling (DFJSS) aims to achieve the optimal efficiency for production planning in the face of dynamic events. In practice, deep Q-network (DQN) algorithms have been intensively studied for solving various DFJSS problems. However, these algorithms often cause moving targets for the given job-shop state. This will inevitably lead to unstable training and severe deterioration of the performance. In this paper, we propose a training algorithm based on genetic algorithm to efficiently and effectively address this critical issue. Specifically, a state feature extraction method is first developed, which can effectively represent different job shop scenarios. Furthermore, a genetic encoding strategy is designed, which can reduce the encoding length to enhance search ability. In addition, an evaluation strategy is proposed to calculate a fixed target for each job-shop state, which can avoid the parameter update of target networks. With the designs, the DQNs could be stably trained, thus their performance is greatly improved. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms the state-of-the-art peer competitors in terms of both effectiveness and generalizability to multiple scheduling scenarios with different scales. In addition, the ablation study also reveals that the proposed algorithm can outperform the DQN algorithms with different updating frequencies of target networks. IEEE

Machine learning has been massively utilized to construct data-driven solutions for predicting the lifetime of rechargeable batteries in recent years, which project the physical measurements obtained during the early charging/discharging cycles to the remaining useful lifetime. While most existing techniques train the prediction model through minimizing the prediction error only, the errors associated with the physical measurements can also induce negative impact to the prediction accuracy. Although total-least-squares(TLS) regression has been applied to address this issue, it relies on the unrealistic assumption that the distributions of measurement errors on all input variables are equivalent, and cannot appropriately capture the practical characteristics of battery degradation. In order to tackle this challenge, this work intends to model the variations along different input dimensions, thereby improving the accuracy and robustness of battery lifetime prediction. In specific, we propose an innovative EM-TLS framework that enhances the TLS-based prediction to accommodate dimension-variate errors, while simultaneously investigating the distributions of them using expectation-maximization(EM). Experiments have been conducted to validate the proposed method based on the data of commercial Lithium-Ion batteries, where it reduces the prediction error by up to 29.9 % compared with conventional TLS. This demonstrates the immense potential of the proposed method for advancing the R&D of rechargeable batteries.
