R. S. Sutton and A. G. Barto: reinforcement learning : An Introduction1 Chapter 5: Monte Carlo Methods ! Monte Carlo Methods learn from complete sample returns!Only defined for episodic tasks! Monte Carlo Methods learn directly from experience!On-line: No model necessary and still attains optimality!Simulated: No need for a full modelR. S. Sutton and A. G. Barto: reinforcement learning : An Introduction2 Monte Carlo Policy Evaluation!Goal: learn V!(s)!Given: some number of episodes under ! which contain s!Idea: Average returns observed after visits to s!Every-Visit MC: average returns for every time s is visitedin an episode!
