Reinforcement learning (RL) methods have become popular in recent years because of their ability to solve complex tasks with minimal feedback. Both genetic algorithms (GAs) and te...
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....
Many popular optimization algorithms, like the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm (LMA), use heuristic-based "controllers" that modulate the behavior of the optimizer during ...
Abstract. While direct, model-free reinforcement learning often performs better than model-based approaches in practice, only the latter have yet supported theoretical guarantees f...
We present a general methodology to automate the search for equilibrium strategies in games derived from computational experimentation. Our approach interleaves empirical game-the...
