Reinforcement Learning for Geometry Problems

Student: Kalashnykov Vadym

Supervisor: Pavel Shvechikov

Faculty: Faculty of Computer Science

Educational Programme: Applied Mathematics and Information Science (Bachelor)

Year of Graduation: 2020

Planimetry problems from the school curriculum are often formulated in terms of metric relations between objects defined in the problem statement. Meanwhile, geometry problems from mathematical competitions usually require students to expand given configuration in nontrivial ways to be able to generate a correct solution. The emerging constructions can be naturally represented in the form of graphs where vertices and edges are assigned labels from some finite alphabet. Existing systems of automatic theorem proving are based on algebraic methods and fundamentally different from how students approach geometry problems. In our work, we define an infinite geometry knowledge graph and develop a software framework to represent some optimization problems as rl-environments. We also propose an agent architecture that is able to deal with graph-structured observations.

Student Theses at HSE must be completed in accordance with the University Rules and regulations specified by each educational programme.

Summaries of all theses must be published and made freely available on the HSE website.

The full text of a thesis can be published in open access on the HSE website only if the authoring student (copyright holder) agrees, or, if the thesis was written by a team of students, if all the co-authors (copyright holders) agree. After a thesis is published on the HSE website, it obtains the status of an online publication.

Student theses are objects of copyright and their use is subject to limitations in accordance with the Russian Federation’s law on intellectual property.

In the event that a thesis is quoted or otherwise used, reference to the author’s name and the source of quotation is required.
