Discovering Abstract Concepts to Aid Cross-Map Transfer for a Learning Agent

چکیده
The capacity to apply knowledge in a context different than the one in which it was learned has become crucial within the area of autonomous agents. This paper specifically addresses the issue of transfer of knowledge acquired through online learning in partially observable environments. We investigate the discovery of relevant abstract concepts which help the transfer of knowledge in the context of an environment characterized by its 2D geographical configuration. The architecture proposed is tested in a simple grid-world environment where two agents duel each other. Results show that an agent's performances are improved through learning, including when it is tested on a map it has not yet seen.

متن کاملHierarchical Functional Concepts for Knowledge Transfer among Reinforcement Learning Agents
This article introduces the notions of functional space and concept as a way of knowledge representation and abstraction for Reinforcement Learning agents. These definitions are used as a tool of knowledge transfer among agents. The agents are assumed to be heterogeneous; they have different state spaces but share a same dynamic, reward and action space. In other words, the agents are assumed t...
متن کاملDiscovering Concept Maps from Textual Sources
Concept maps and knowledge maps, often used as learning materials, enable users to recognize important concepts and the relationships between them. For example, concept maps can be used to provide adaptive learning guidance for learners such as path systems for curriculum sequencing to improve the effectiveness of learning process. Generation of concept maps typically involve domain experts, wh...
متن کاملInterfirm Alliance Interactions and knowledge Learning: A Conceptual Research Model
Alliance raises many knowledge transfer and interfirm learning issues that have implications for how the alliance partners manage their cooperative learning activities in the alliance system. Many of these implications are grounded in the assumption that partners in the alliances have routines for transferring knowledge, learning, gaining management efficiencies. Thus organisations can support ...
