Hierarchical reinforcement learning is a general framework which attempts to accelerate policy learning in large domains. On the other hand, policy gradient reinforcement learning...
Abstract. Social conventions are useful self-sustaining protocols for groups to coordinate behavior without a centralized entity enforcing coordination. The emergence of such conve...
— Legged robots can, in principle, traverse a large variety of obstacles and terrains. In this paper, we describe a successful application of reinforcement learning to the proble...
We consider the problem of multi-task reinforcement learning where the learner is provided with a set of tasks, for which only a small number of samples can be generated for any g...
This paper describes Icarus, an agent architecture that embeds a hierarchical reinforcement learning algorithm within a language for specifying agent behavior. An Icarus program e...
