This paper introduces an approach to automatic basis function construction for Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning (HRL) tasks. We describe some considerations that arise when con...
We describe the Fourier Basis, a linear value function approximation scheme based on the Fourier Series. We empirically evaluate its properties, and demonstrate that it performs w...
: In order to scale to problems with large or continuous state-spaces, reinforcement learning algorithms need to be combined with function approximation techniques. The majority of...
Cognitive scientists and developmental psychologists have suggested that development in perceptual, motor and memory functions of human infants as well as adaptive evaluation by ca...
To avoid the curse of dimensionality, function approximators are used in reinforcement learning to learn value functions for individual states. In order to make better use of comp...
