Learning as Reinforcement: Applying Principles of Neuroscience for More General Reinforcement Learning Agents [PDF]
A significant challenge in developing AI that can generalize well is designing agents that learn about their world without being told what to learn, and apply that learning to challenges with sparse rewards. Moreover, most traditional reinforcement learning approaches explicitly separate learning and decision making in a way that does not correspond to
