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....
As computational learning agents move into domains that incur real costs (e.g., autonomous driving or financial investment), it will be necessary to learn good policies without n...
Realistic domains for learning possess regularities that make it possible to generalize experience across related states. This paper explores an environment-modeling framework tha...
Learning on real robots in an real, unaltered environment provides an extremely challenging problem. Many of the simplifying assumptions made in other areas of learning cannot be ...
Learning how to create, test, and revise models is a central skill in scientific reasoning. We argue that qualitative modeling provides an appropriate level of representation for ...
