Authors: Ali Taghibakhshi, Scott MacLachlan, Luke Olson, Matthew West

This paper addresses the problem of grid coarsening for algebraic multigrid (AMG) methods by proposing a reinforcement learning (RL) method using graph neural networks (GNNs). The authors present a novel approach based on dueling double-DQN agents with topology adaptive convolution layers (TAGCN) that outperforms existing heuristic methods while preserving theoretical guarantees for convergence. Additionally, the proposed method demonstrates scalability with a linear graph-decomposition-based evaluation algorithm.

Strengths:

- The paper provides a clear background and motivation for the research, addressing shortcomings in existing methods and presenting a well-defined problem.
- The proposed RL method using GNNs shows promising results, outperforming existing heuristic methods and preserving theoretical convergence guarantees.
- The paper demonstrates the scalability of the proposed method, which is an essential aspect for the practical application of grid coarsening in AMG methods.

Weaknesses:

- The RL agent is specialized for solving Poisson's equation on 2D grids, limiting its applicability to other problems and requiring further research to generalize the approach.
- The paper does not provide a thorough comparison with other machine learning-based approaches or address their limitations.
-  While the paper demonstrates the scalability of the proposed method, it does not provide a detailed analysis of the computational cost associated with training the RL agent and the GNN. Understanding the trade-off between the time taken for training and the improvements achieved in grid coarsening would provide a more comprehensive assessment of the method's practicality.
- The paper does not discuss the robustness of the proposed method to noisy or imperfect input data. In real-world applications, it is crucial to understand how sensitive the RL-based GNN approach is to such variations and whether any pre-processing or additional steps are necessary to ensure its reliability.
- The paper tests the proposed method on the 2D Poisson problem with various unstructured grids. However, it would be beneficial to evaluate the method's performance on a wider range of benchmark problems to further validate its applicability and effectiveness.
- The paper does not provide details on the hyperparameter tuning process or model selection for the RL agent and GNN. Understanding how these choices were made and how sensitive the results are to different hyperparameter settings would help establish the robustness and generalizability of the proposed method.

Overall, the paper presents a well-motivated and innovative approach to grid coarsening for AMG methods, successfully addressing the problem and showing promising results. However, the paper could benefit from a broader discussion of related machine learning-based approaches and further investigation into generalizing the proposed method.
