The Two-Hump Problem: Bridging the Difficulty Gap in Mathematical Reinforcement Learning
Lucas Fagan, Michele Tarquini, Ali Shehper +6
Mathematical search problems present a unique challenge for Reinforcement Learning (RL) due to vast search spaces and sparse rewards. In previous works, the Andrews-Curtis (AC) con…
