Variational methods for Reinforcement Learning
We consider reinforcement learning as solving a Markov decision process with unknown transition distribution. Based on interaction with the environment, an estimate of the transit...

Comparing evolutionary and temporal difference methods in a reinforcement learning domain
Both genetic algorithms (GAs) and temporal difference (TD) methods have proven effective at solving reinforcement learning (RL) problems. However, since few rigorous empirical com...

Cooperative Behavior Acquisition for Mobile Robots in Dynamically Changing Real Worlds Via Vision-Based Reinforcement Learning a
In this paper, we first discuss the meaning of physical embodiment and the complexity of the environment in the context of multi-agent learning. We then propose a vision-based rei...

Learning behavior styles with inverse reinforcement learning
We present a method for inferring the behavior styles of character controllers from a small set of examples. We show that a rich set of behavior variations can be captured by dete...

Control of exploitation-exploration meta-parameter in reinforcement learning
In reinforcement learning (RL), the duality between exploitation and exploration has long been an important issue. This paper presents a new method that controls the balance betwe...
