Learning Reusable Skills through Self-Motivation
Andrea Bonarini, Alessandro Lazaric, Marcello Restelli · 2006
This paper presents SMILe (Self-Motivated Incremental Learning), an intrinsically moti-vated learning framework in which an agent autonomously identifies interesting subgoals independently from any task prescription, and, driven by self-motivation, incrementally learns a hierarchy of more and more com-plex skills. Preliminary experimental activi-ties show that learned skills can be profitably reused when the agent faces different tasks. 1.
