Researchers have explored the use of reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms, specifically Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) and Soft Actor-Critic (SAC), to enhance hardware fault tolerance in machines. The study systematically compared these RL methods and investigated four knowledge-transfer strategies. Performance was evaluated in simulated environments, showing that RL can achieve rapid, fault-specific recovery, with different algorithms and strategies yielding distinct trade-offs in adaptation speed and asymptotic performance.
