Broad-persistent Advice for Interactive Reinforcement Learning Scenarios
share
The use of interactive advice in reinforcement learning scenarios allows for speeding up the learning process for autonomous agents. Current interactive reinforcement learning research has been limited to real-time interactions that offer relevant user advice to the current state only. Moreover, the information provided by each interaction is not retained and instead discarded by the agent after a single use. In this paper, we present a method for retaining and reusing provided knowledge, allowing trainers to give general advice relevant to more than just the current state. Results obtained show that the use of broad-persistent advice substantially improves the performance of the agent while reducing the number of interactions required for the trainer.
