A hierarchical approach to efficient reinforcement learning in deterministic domains
Factored representations, model-based learning, and hierarchies are well-studied techniques for improving the learning efficiency of reinforcement-learning algorithms in large-sca...

Hierarchically Optimal Average Reward Reinforcement Learning
Two notions of optimality have been explored in previous work on hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL): hierarchical optimality, or the optimal policy in the space defined by ...

Generating Hierarchical Structure in Reinforcement Learning from State Variables
This paper presents the CQ algorithm which decomposes and solves a Markov Decision Process (MDP) by automatically generating a hierarchy of smaller MDPs using state variables. The ...

Tracking value function dynamics to improve reinforcement learning with piecewise linear function approximation
Reinforcement learning algorithms can become unstable when combined with linear function approximation. Algorithms that minimize the mean-square Bellman error are guaranteed to co...

Hierarchical reinforcement learning with subpolicies specializing for learned subgoals
This paper describes a method for hierarchical reinforcement learning in which high-level policies automatically discover subgoals, and low-level policies learn to specialize for ...
