We examine the so-called rigorous support vector machine (RSVM) approach proposed by Vapnik (1998). The formulation of RSVM is derived by explicitly implementing the structural ris...
This paper introduces an approach to automatic basis function construction for Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning (HRL) tasks. We describe some considerations that arise when con...
In sequential decision-making problems formulated as Markov decision processes, state-value function approximation using domain features is a critical technique for scaling up the...
Dynamic Programming, Q-learning and other discrete Markov Decision Process solvers can be applied to continuous d-dimensional state-spaces by quantizing the state space into an arr...
— This paper shows the advantage of using neural network modularity over conventional learning schemes to approximate complex functions. Indeed, it is difficult for artificial ...
