Study Notes
Performance Measure (Utility Function)
- A performance measure is an objective criterion to evaluate an agent's behavior, determining its success.
- The primary goal is to take the right action that maximizes success.
Performance Measure Criteria
- The performance measure is defined by two key criteria:
- (a) Reaching the goal: The ability of the agent to achieve the desired goal.
- (b) Path cost: The expenses or costs incurred while following the path to the goal.
Evaluate an agent's behavior with a performance measure, considering goal achievement and path costs. Learn to maximize success in utility function.
