Kernel-based function approximation improves reinforcement learning performance.
Kernel-based online learning has often shown state-of-the-art performance for many online learning tasks. It, however, suffers from a major shortcoming, that is, the unbounded number of support vectors, making it non-scalable and unsuitable for applications with large-scale datasets. In this work, we study the problem …
