Explanation-Based Reinforcement Learning (EBRL) was introduced by Dietterich and Flann as a way of combining the ability of Reinforcement Learning (RL) to learn optimal plans with...
Reinforcement Learning (RL) is analyzed here as a tool for control system optimization. State and action spaces are assumed to be continuous. Time is assumed to be discrete, yet th...
Factored representations, model-based learning, and hierarchies are well-studied techniques for improving the learning efficiency of reinforcement-learning algorithms in large-sca...
