    Flashcards

    Deterministic Environment

    The next environment state is entirely predictable based on the current state and the agent's action. The transition model predicts a unique successor state, eliminating uncertainty.

    Stochastic Environment

    The next environment state is not deterministic, but rather a probability distribution over possible states. This means the outcome of an agent's action is uncertain.

    Strategic Environment

    The environment's state transitions are predictable, but the actions of other agents introduce uncertainty. This means the agent must be aware of and react to other agents in the environment.

    Episodic Environment

    The agent's experience is divided into independent episodes, each with a clear beginning and end. Each episode's outcomes don't influence later ones.

    Sequential Environment

    The agent's experience is a continuous sequence of observations and actions. Each action influences subsequent states, forming a chain of events.
