An Actor-Critic Algorithm with Function Approximation for Risk Sensitive Cost Markov Decision Processes
Soumyajit Guin, Vivek S. Borkar, Shalabh Bhatnagar
In this paper, we consider the risk-sensitive cost criterion with exponentiated costs for Markov decision processes and develop a model-free policy gradient algorithm in this setti…
