Study Notes
Environment Types in Reinforcement Learning
- A fully observable environment is one in which the agent has access to the complete state of the environment at any given time.
- A key characteristic of a stochastic environment is that the next state of the environment is uncertain, and the outcome of an action is not always the same.
- An episodic environment is one in which the agent's experience is divided into separate episodes, with no continuity between them, whereas a sequential environment is one in which the agent's experience is continuous.
- A deterministic environment is one in which the next state of the environment is entirely dependent on the current state and the agent's actions, whereas a stochastic environment is one in which the next state is uncertain.
- A static environment is one in which the environment does not change over time, whereas a dynamic environment is one in which the environment changes over time.
- In a fully observable environment, the agent has access to the complete state of the environment, whereas in a partially observable environment, the agent has access to only partial or incomplete information about the environment.

Description
Test your knowledge on fully observable and partially observable environments with this quiz! Discover the key differences between them, and learn how an agent's sensor can affect its ability to sense the state of an environment. Understand why fully observable environments are easier to deal with, and explore what happens when an agent has no sensors in any environment. Challenge yourself and see how much you know about this important topic!
