A Reinforcement Learning (RL) system depends on a set of initial conditions (hyperparameters) that affect the system's performance. However, defining a good choice of hyperparameters is a challenging problem. Hyperparameter tuning often requires manual or automated searches to find optimal values. Nonetheless, a noticeable limitation is the high cost of algorithm evaluation for complex models, making the tuning process computationally expensive and time-consuming. In this paper, we propose a framework based on integrating complex event processing and temporal models, to alleviate these trade-offs. Through this combination, it is possible to gain insights about a running RL system efficiently and unobtrusively based on data stream monitoring and to create abstract representations that allow reasoning about the historical behaviour of the RL system. The obtained knowledge is exploited to provide feedback to the RL system for optimising its hyperparameters while making effective use of parallel resources. We introduce a novel history-aware epsilon-greedy logic for hyperparameter optimisation that instead of using static hyperparameters that are kept fixed for the whole training, adjusts the hyperparameters at runtime based on the analysis of the agent's performance over time windows in a single agent's lifetime. We tested the proposed approach in a 5G mobile communications case study that uses DQN, a variant of RL, for its decision-making. Our experiments demonstrated the effects of hyperparameter tuning using history on training stability and reward values. The encouraging results show that the proposed history-aware framework significantly improved performance compared to traditional hyperparameter tuning approaches.
