An open problem in reinforcement learning is discovering hierarchical structure. HEXQ, an algorithm which automatically attempts to decompose and solve a model-free factored MDP h...
In this article, I will consider Markov Decision Processes with two criteria, each defined as the expected value of an infinite horizon cumulative return. The second criterion is e...
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....
As computational learning agents move into domains that incur real costs (e.g., autonomous driving or financial investment), it will be necessary to learn good policies without n...
Realistic domains for learning possess regularities that make it possible to generalize experience across related states. This paper explores an environment-modeling framework tha...
