Abstract Forpractical considerations reinforcement learning has proven to be a difficult task outside of simulation when applied physical experiment. Here we derive an optional approach model free learning, achieved entirely online, through careful experimental design and algorithmic decision making. We scheme implement traditionally episodic algorithms for unstable 1-dimensional mechanical env...

BACKGROUND Many characteristics of urban parks and neighbourhoods have been linked to patterns of physical activity, yet untangling these relationships to promote increased levels of physical activity presents methodological challenges. Based on qualitative and quantitative data, this article describes patterns of activity within urban parks and the socio-demographic characteristics of park vis...
