  Abstract

Recent studies in military decision support have actively explored deep reinforcement learning (RL) approaches to automate complex battlefield decision-making processes. This paper proposes a reward-adaptive RL-based firepower operation system designed to support command decisions in dynamic combat environments. The proposed system perceives battlefield situations through a perception module and makes decisions to achieve the commander’s desired effects. The decision-making module integrates both pre-collected and online interaction data while employing a reward-adaptive selective imitation mechanism to enhance sample efficiency and stability simultaneously. Through simulated battlefield scenarios, the proposed system demonstrated an average 29% improvement in mission achievement compared to conventional RL and heuristic-based methods, while effectively satisfying given operational constraints.
