A New Way to Introduce Knowledge into Reinforcement Learning
We present in this paper a method to introduce a priori knowledge into reinforcement learning using temporally extended actions. The aim of our work is to reduce the learning time ...

Could Active Perception Aid Navigation of Partially Observable Grid Worlds?
Due to the unavoidable fact that a robot’s sensors will be limited in some manner, it is entirely possible that it can find itself unable to distinguish between differing state...

A selection-mutation model for q-learning in multi-agent systems
Although well understood in the single-agent framework, the use of traditional reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms in multi-agent systems (MAS) is not always justified. The fe...

Coordination in multiagent reinforcement learning: a Bayesian approach
Much emphasis in multiagent reinforcement learning (MARL) research is placed on ensuring that MARL algorithms (eventually) converge to desirable equilibria. As in standard reinfor...

Q-Concept-Learning: Generalization with Concept Lattice Representation in Reinforcement Learning
One of the very interesting properties of Reinforcement Learning algorithms is that they allow learning without prior knowledge of the environment. However, when the agents use al...

Batch Reinforcement Learning with State Importance
Abstract. We investigate the problem of using function approximation in reinforcement learning where the agent’s policy is represented as a classifier mapping states to actions....

Time-Extended Policies in Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning
Many algorithms such as Q-learning successfully address reinforcement learning in single-agent multi-time-step problems. In addition there are methods that address reinforcement l...
