1 Bellmn Optimlity Eqution for V* The vlue of stte under n optiml policy must equl the expected return for the best ction from tht stte: V (s) mx Q (s,) A(s) mx A(s) mx A(s) Er t 1 V (s t 1 ) s t s, t s P ss The relevnt bckup digrm: R ss V ( s ) V is the unique solution of this system of nonliner equtions. R. S. Sutton nd A. G. Brto: Reinforcement Lerning: An Introduction 1

3 Why Optiml Stte-Vlue Functions re Useful Any policy tht is greedy with respect to V is n optiml policy. V Therefore, given, one-step-hed serch produces the long-term optiml ctions. E.g., bck to the gridworld: * R. S. Sutton nd A. G. Brto: Reinforcement Lerning: An Introduction 3

5 Solving the Bellmn Optimlity Eqution Finding n optiml policy by solving the Bellmn Optimlity Eqution requires the following: ccurte knowledge of environment dynmics; we hve enough spce nd time to do the computtion; the Mrkov Property. How much spce nd time do we need? polynomil in number of sttes (vi dynmic progrmming methods; Chpter 4), BUT, number of sttes is often huge (e.g., bckgmmon hs bout sttes). We usully hve to settle for pproximtions. Mny RL methods cn be understood s pproximtely solving the Bellmn Optimlity Eqution. R. S. Sutton nd A. G. Brto: Reinforcement Lerning: An Introduction 5
