Lighthouse RL: Sample-Efficient Circuit Optimization via Strategic Reset Points

In this paper, we introduce Lighthouse RL, a sample-efficient reinforcement learning (RL) approach for analog circuit sizing. Traditional methods lack generalization across different performance targets, while standard RL approaches waste resources exploring unpromising regions. Our method addresses these inefficiencies through a strategic reset strategy that initializes episodes from high-performing configurations discovered during training, called "lighthouses". These states, which are closer to the target objectives, guide exploration toward promising regions. When compared to RL and Bayesi
