Full Gradient DQN Reinforcement Learning: A Provably Convergent Scheme

Description

We analyze the DQN reinforcement learning algorithm as a stochastic approximation scheme using the o.d.e. (for 'ordinary differential equation') approach and point out certain theoretical issues. We then propose a modified scheme called Full Gradient DQN (FG-DQN, for short) that has a sound theoretical basis and compare it with the original scheme on sample problems. We observe a better performance for FG-DQN.
