Study Notes
Agents that Learn from Experience
- An agent is learning if it improves its performance on future tasks after making observations about the world.
Types of Learning
Supervised Learning
- Agent learns from examples with correct answers
- Goal is to predict correct answers for unseen examples
- Examples: input-output pairs with teacher-provided outputs
- Common task: Classification
Unsupervised Learning
- Agent learns patterns in input without explicit feedback
- Goal is to find patterns in data
- Examples: clustering, detecting useful patterns (e.g. "good traffic days" and "bad traffic days")
- Common task: Clustering
Reinforcement Learning
- Agent learns from series of rewards or punishments
- Goal is to learn which actions lead to high rewards
- Examples: receiving a tip or not, winning a chess game
- Agent decides which actions prior to reinforcement were most responsible
This quiz covers the concept of agents in artificial intelligence that improve their behavior through learning from their experiences. It involves understanding how agents learn from observations and improve their performance on future tasks.
