Reinforcement learning has traditionally occupied a niche status in the world of artificial intelligence. But reinforcement learning has started to assume a larger role in many AI initiatives in ...

The bird has never gotten much credit for being intelligent. But the reinforcement learning powering the world’s most advanced AI systems is far more pigeon than human.

But some of the key principles of reinforcement learning have been applied to AI models. This is often referred to as deep reinforcement learning (since it is leveraged with deep learning).

We consider a finite-state, finite-action, infinite-horizon, discounted reward Markov decision process and study the bias and variance in the value function estimates that result from empirical ...

In fact, some scientists believe that with the right reward function, reinforcement learning is enough to reach artificial general intelligence.
