Building2Building: A Large Scale Benchmark for Generalizable Real-World Reinforcement Learning

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.16534v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has achieved strong results in control, yet learned policies remain brittle to changes in dynamics, action spaces, observation spaces, or goals, a critical limitation for real-world deployment. Existing benchmarks offer limited diversity and complexity, making it difficult to rigorously study transfer, multi-task learning, and meta-learning in RL. We introduce Building2Building (B2B), a large-scale suite of realistic Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) control environments built on EnergyPlus, a state-of-the-art building simulator. B2B is fully compatible with the Gymnasium interface and features a parametric building generator, enabling the systematic generation of diverse building configurations wit
