contents In the realm of heterogeneous mixed autonomy, vehicles experience dynamic spatial correlations and nonlinear temporal interactions in a complex, non-Euclidean space. These complexities pose significant challenges to traditional decision-making frameworks. Addressing this, we propose a hierarchical reinforcement learning framework integrated with multilevel graph representations, which effectively comprehends and models the spatiotemporal interactions among vehicles navigating through uncertain traffic conditions with varying decision-making systems. Rooted in multilevel graph representation theory, our approach encapsulates spatiotemporal relationships inherent in non-Euclidean spaces. A weighted graph represents spatiotemporal features between nodes, addressing the degree imbalance inherent in dynamic graphs. We integrate asynchronous parallel hierarchical reinforcement learning with a multilevel graph representation and a multi-head attention mechanism, which enables connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs) to exhibit capabilities akin to human cognition, facilitating consistent decision-making across various critical dimensions. The proposed decision-making strategy is validated in challenging environments characterized by high density, randomness, and dynamism on highway roads. We assess the performance of our framework through ablation studies, comparative analyses, and spatiotemporal trajectory evaluations. This study presents a quantitative analysis of decision-making mechanisms mirroring human cognitive functions in the realm of heterogeneous mixed autonomy, promoting the development of multi-dimensional decision-making strategies and a sophisticated distribution of attentional resources.
