On Explainability of Reinforcement Learning-Based Machine Learning Agents Trained with Proximal Policy Optimization That Utilizes Visual Sensor Data by Tomasz Hachaj, Marcin Piekarczyk

“…This estimation makes it possible to determine whether the network makes decisions as expected (decision-making is related to the model’s observation of objects belonging to different semantic classes in the environment) and to detect unexpected, seemingly chaotic behavior that might be, for example, the result of data bias, bad design of the reward function or insufficient generalization abilities of the model. …”
