Rates of Convergence of Performance Gradient Estimates Using Function Approximation and Bias in Reinforcement Learning
We address two open theoretical questions in Policy Gradient Reinforcement Learning. The first concerns the efficacy of using function approximation to represent the state action ...

Least absolute policy iteration for robust value function approximation
Abstract— Least-squares policy iteration is a useful reinforcement learning method in robotics due to its computational efficiency. However, it tends to be sensitive to outliers...

Constructing action set from basis functions for reinforcement learning of robot control
Abstract— Continuous action sets are used in many reinforcement learning (RL) applications in robot control since the control input is continuous. However, discrete action sets a...

Parallel Reinforcement Learning with Linear Function Approximation
In this paper, we investigate the use of parallelization in reinforcement learning (RL), with the goal of learning optimal policies for single-agent RL problems more quickly by us...

Experiments in Value Function Approximation with Sparse Support Vector Regression
Abstract. We present first experiments using Support Vector Regression as function approximator for an on-line, sarsa-like reinforcement learner. To overcome the batch nature of S...
