-
(qualifier:machine learning, uncountable) A machine-learning paradigm in which a model or agent learns by taking actions and receiving reward signals that indicate how well those actions achieve a desired objective.
Reinforcement learning can be seen as somewhere between supervised and unsupervised learning. The learning system receives a feedback for its actions, but it is not provided with examples to learn from.
