WhatisADP2.

Inthispaperweactuallyuse:J(R(t))=maxu(t)(U(R(t),u(t))+)(2)sincethemazeproblemdonotinvolveaninnitetime-horizon.
InsteadofsolvingforthevalueofJineverypossiblestate,R(t),wecanuseafunctionapproximationmethodlikeneuralnetworkstoapproximatetheJfunction.
Thisiscalledapproximatedynamicprogramming(ADP).
ThispaperisnotdoingtrueADPbecauseintrueADPwedonotknowwhattheJfunctionisandmustthereforeuseindirectmethodstoapproximateit.
However,beforewetrytouseSRNsasacomponentofanADPsystem,itmakessensetorsttesttheabilityofanSRNtoapproximateaJfunction,inprinciple.
NowwewilltrytoexplainwhatistheintuitivemeaningoftheBellmanequation(Equation(1))andtheJfunctionaccordingtothetreatmenttakenfrom[2].
TounderstandADP,onemustrstreviewthebasicsofclassicaldynamicprogramming,especiallytheversionsdevelopedbyHoward[28]andBertsekas.
6Classicaldynamicprogrammingistheonlyexactandecientmethodtocom-putetheoptimalcontrolpolicyovertime,inageneralnonlinearstochasticenvi-ronment.
Theonlyreasontoapproximateitistoreducecomputationalcost,soastomakethemethodaordable(feasible)acrossawiderangeofapplications.

Forthisreason,ADPistheonlyapproachwehavetoimitatingthiskindofabilityofthebrain.

InsteadofsolvingforthevalueofJineverypossiblestate,R(t),wecanuseafunctionapproximationmethodlikeneuralnetworkstoapproximatetheJfunction.
Thisiscalledapproximatedynamicprogramming(ADP).

However,beforewetrytouseSRNsasacomponentofanADPsystem,itmakessensetorsttesttheabilityofanSRNtoapproximateaJfunction,inprinciple.
NowwewilltrytoexplainwhatistheintuitivemeaningoftheBellmanequation(Equation(1))andtheJfunctionaccordingtothetreatmenttakenfrom[2].
TounderstandADP,onemustrstreviewthebasicsofclassicaldynamicprogramming,especiallytheversionsdevelopedbyHoward[28]andBertsekas.
