Learning

Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

Define First-Visit Monte Carlo.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how often the state is counted in the total value.

Question 2

Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What does First-Visit Monte Carlo use to estimate a state's value?

  • Average of all visits
  • Only the first visit
  • Only the last visit

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what it means to only count the first encounter.

Question 2

True or False: Every-Visit Monte Carlo averages all visits to a state, while First-Visit only considers the first.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Reflect on the definitions we discussed.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design an experiment using Monte Carlo methods to evaluate a new game strategy. Describe how you would implement First-Visit and Every-Visit approaches in your analysis.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Focus on how returns are measured across episodes.

Question 2

Critique the effectiveness of the Ξ΅-greedy strategy in environments with rapidly changing dynamics, and propose an alternative exploration strategy.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the adaptability of the strategy to changing environments.
