Abstract

This paper focuses on learning to select behavioral primitives and generate sub-goals from practicing a task. We present a novel algorithm that combines Q-learning and a locally weighted learning method to improve primitive selection and sub-goal generation. We demonstrate this approach applied to the tilt maze task (see video). Our robot initially learns to perform this task using learning from observation, and then learns from practice.
