Abstract— The mapping and localization problems have received considerable attention in robotics recently. The exploration problem that drives mapping has started to generate sim...
This paper presents a new approach to hierarchical reinforcement learning based on the MAXQ decomposition of the value function. The MAXQ decomposition has both a procedural seman...
While in general trading off exploration and exploitation in reinforcement learning is hard, under some formulations relatively simple solutions exist. Optimal decision thresholds ...
R-max is a very simple model-based reinforcement learning algorithm which can attain near-optimal average reward in polynomial time. In R-max, the agent always maintains a complet...
Communication overheads are one of the fundamental challenges in a multiprocessor system. As the number of processors on a chip increases, communication overheads and the distribu...
