Bifurcation Analysis of Reinforcement Learning Agents in the Selten's Horse Game
Abstract. The application of reinforcement learning algorithms to multiagent domains may cause complex non-convergent dynamics. The replicator dynamics, commonly used in evolutiona...

Residual Algorithms: Reinforcement Learning with Function Approximation
A number of reinforcement learning algorithms have been developed that are guaranteed to converge to the optimal solution when used with lookup tables. It is shown, however, that ...

Implicit Imitation in Multiagent Reinforcement Learning
Imitation is actively being studied as an effective means of learning in multi-agent environments. It allows an agent to learn how to act well (perhaps optimally) by passively obs...

Off-Policy Temporal Difference Learning with Function Approximation
We introduce the first algorithm for off-policy temporal-difference learning that is stable with linear function approximation. Off-policy learning is of interest because it forms...

Learning the structure of Factored Markov Decision Processes in reinforcement learning problems
Recent decision-theoric planning algorithms are able to find optimal solutions in large problems, using Factored Markov Decision Processes (fmdps). However, these algorithms need ...

Reinforcement learning in the presence of rare events
We consider the task of reinforcement learning in an environment in which rare significant events occur independently of the actions selected by the controlling agent. If these ev...
