  • Abstract
    This paper reports on our work of integrating low-cost sensors, probabilistic localization, and stochastic learning in a wireless sensor network-based system applied to warehouse management. This work is on-going, and our next step will be running the actor-critic policy optimization on a realistic scale in the real warehouse environment.
