Multi-task reinforcement learning: a hierarchical Bayesian approach
We consider the problem of multi-task reinforcement learning, where the agent needs to solve a sequence of Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) chosen randomly from a fixed but unknow...

Evaluation of a hierarchical reinforcement learning spoken dialogue system
We describe an evaluation of spoken dialogue strategies designed using hierarchical reinforcement learning agents. The dialogue strategies were learnt in a simulated environment a...

Learning to Coordinate Using Commitment Sequences in Cooperative Multi-agent Systems
We report on an investigation of the learning of coordination in cooperative multi-agent systems. Specifically, we study solutions that are applicable to independent agents i.e. ...

Hierarchical multi-agent reinforcement learning
In this paper, we investigate the use of hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL) to speed up the acquisition of cooperative multi-agent tasks. We introduce a hierarchical multi-a...

On the Convergence of Bound Optimization Algorithms
Many practitioners who use EM and related algorithms complain that they are sometimes slow. When does this happen, and what can be done about it? In this paper, we study the gener...
