An intrinsic reward mechanism for efficient exploration

open access: yesProceedings of the 23rd international conference on Machine learning - ICML '06, 2006
How should a reinforcement learning agent act if its sole purpose is to efficiently learn an optimal policy for later use? In other words, how should it explore, to be able to exploit later? We formulate this problem as a Markov Decision Process by explicitly modeling the internal state of the agent and propose a principled heuristic for its solution ...
