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...
Developing dialogue systems is a complex process. In particular, designing efficient dialogue management strategies is often difficult as there are no precise guidelines to develo...
We consider reinforcement learning in systems with unknown dynamics. Algorithms such as E3 (Kearns and Singh, 2002) learn near-optimal policies by using "exploration policies...
We present a new subgoal-based method for automatically creating useful skills in reinforcement learning. Our method identifies subgoals by partitioning local state transition gra...
The application of Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithms to learn tasks for robots is often limited by the large dimension of the state space, which may make prohibitive its appli...
