Abstract:
A method for reinforcement learning adopting a centering operation using a weight corresponding to a behavior probability is provided. The method includes steps of: a computing device instructing a reinforcement learning agent to (a) determine a k-th estimated parameter by referring to (i) a probability distribution for estimating the k-th behavior if k=1, and (ii) the probability distribution generated by selecting a (k−1)-th behavior if k>1; (b) select one of N behavior candidates as the k-th behavior by referring to (i) the k-th estimated parameter, and (ii) k-th contexts; (c) if k-th behavior probabilities are acquired, (i) generate k-th weighted expectation value of the k-th contexts, and (ii) generate k-th adjusted contexts by applying the centering operation to the k-th contexts; and (d) if a k-th reward is acquired, generate the probability distribution for estimating a (k+1)-th behavior using the k-th adjusted contexts, the k-th behavior probabilities, and the k-th reward.
