•Q(s,a) = E[r(s,a)] + g Sums'[P(s'|s,a)
maxa'[Q(s',a')]]
•Our previous update
rule fails to converge.
–Suppose we start with
the correct Q function.
–Nondeterminism will
change Q forever.
•Need to slow change to
Q over time:
•Let an = 1/(1+visitsn(s,a)) (including current visit)
•Qn(s,a) ß (1-an)(old estimate) + an(new estimate)
•Qn(s,a) ß (1-an)Qn-1(s,a) + an(r + g maxa'[Qn-1(s',a')])
•
