Zusammenfassung
This article reviews an emerging field that aims for autonomous reinforcement learning (RL) directly on sensor-observations. Straightforward end-to-end RL has recently shown remarkable success, but relies on large amounts of samples. As this is not feasible in robotics, we review two approaches to learn intermediate state representations from previous experiences: deep auto-encoders and slow-feature analysis. We analyze theoretical properties of the representations and point to potential improvements.
