In real-world domains a concept to be learned may be unwieldy and the environment may be less than ideal. One combination of difficulties occurs if the concept is probabilistic an...
Direct policy search is a practical way to solve reinforcement learning problems involving continuous state and action spaces. The goal becomes finding policy parameters that maxi...
