Eligibility traces have been shown to speed reinforcement learning, to make it more robust to hidden states, and to provide a link between Monte Carlo and temporal-difference meth...

This work presents a new algorithm, called Heuristically Accelerated Q–Learning (HAQL), that allows the use of heuristics to speed up the well-known Reinforcement Learning algori...

For a Markov Decision Process with finite state (size S) and action spaces (size A per state), we propose a new algorithm--Delayed Q-Learning. We prove it is PAC, achieving near o...

As learning agents move from research labs to the real world, it is increasingly important that human users, including those without programming skills, be able to teach agents de...
Several researchers have recently investigated the connection between reinforcement learning and classification. We are motivated by proposals of approximate policy iteration schem...
