Can you analyse a neural network to determine good states?

I've developed a neural network that can play a card game. I now want to use it to create decks for the game. My first thought would be to run a lot of games with random decks and use some approximation (maybe just a linear approximation with a…

How is the fitted Q-iteration algorithm related to $Q^*(s, a)$, and how can we use function approximation with this algorithm?

I hope to get some clarifications on Fitted Q-Iteration (FQI). My Research So Far I've read Sutton's book (specifically, ch 6 to 10), Ernst et al and this paper. I know that $Q^*(s, a)$ expresses the expected value of first taking action $a$ from…

Is the word "pose" used correctly in the paper "Matrix Capsules with EM Routing"?

In traditional computer vision and computer graphics, the pose matrix is a $4 \times 4$ matrix of the form $$ \begin{bmatrix} r_{11} & r_{12} & r_{12} & t_{1} \\ r_{21} & r_{22} & r_{22} & t_{2} \\ r_{31} & r_{32} & r_{32} & t_{3}…

What is the importance of the endocannabinoid system for cognitive function?

The endocannabinoid system is a very important function of human biology. Unfortunately, due to the illegality of cannabis, it is a relatively new field of study. I have read a few articles about Google researching the role of dopamine in learning,…

What could happen if we wrongly assume that the POMDP is an MDP?

Consider the Breakout environment. We know that the underlying world behaves like an MDP, because, for the evolution of the system, it just needs to know what the current state (i.e. position, speed, and speed direction of the ball, positions of the…

What do the neural network's weights represent conceptually?

I understand how neural networks work and have studied their theory well. My question is: On the whole, is there a clear understanding of how mutation occurs within a neural network from the input layer to the output layer, for both supervised and…
