Fitted Q-iteration by Advantage Weighted Regression
Recently, fitted Q-iteration (FQI) based methods have become more popular due to their increased sample efficiency, a more stable learning process and the higher quality of the resulting policy. However, these methods remain hard to use for continuous action spaces which frequently occur in real-world tasks, e.g., in robotics and other technical applications. The greedy action selection commonl...
متن کاملA Discrete Model for Bootstrap Iteration
In an attempt to free bootstrap theory from the shackles of asymptotic considerations, this paper studies the possibility of justifying, or validating, the bootstrap, not by letting the sample size tend to infinity, but by considering the sequence of bootstrap P values obtained by iterating the bootstrap. The main idea of the paper is that, if this sequence converges to a random variable that f...

متن کاملBootstrap statistics for empirical games
Researchers often use normal-form games to model multiagent interactions. When a game model is based on observational or simulated data about agent payoffs, we call it an empirical game. The payoff matrix of an empirical game can be analyzed like any normal-form game, for example, by identifying Nash equilibria or instances of other solution concepts. Given the game model’s basis in sampled dat...
متن کاملApproximate Bayesian Inference by the Weighted Likelihood Bootstrap
We introduce the weighted likelihood bootstrap (WLB) as a simple way of approximately simulating from a posterior distribution. This is easy to implement, requiring only an algorithm for calculating the maximum likelihood estimator, such as the EM algorithm or iteratively reweighted least squares; it does not necessarily require actual calculation of the likelihood itself. The method is exact u...
