Abstract

Reinforcement Learning faces an important challenge in partial observable environments that has long-term dependencies. In order to learn in an ambiguous environment, an agent has to keep previous perceptions in a memory. Earlier memory based approaches use a fixed method to determine what to keep in the memory, which limits them to certain problems. In this study, we follow the idea of giving the control of the memory to the agent by allowing it to have memory-changing actions. This learning mechanism is supported by an intrinsic motivation to memorize rare observations that can help the agent to disambiguate its state in the environment. Our approach is experimented and analyzed on several partial observable tasks with long-term dependencies and compared with other memory based methods.
