2. Methods for coordinating learning algorithms
Overall, three main families of combinations of multiple learning algorithms have been proposed: merging the outputs of these algorithms before making a decision; selecting one of these algorithms, which then takes sole control of the agent; this selection may result from monitoring the evolution of internal variables, or from a second learning layer.
If we're not looking to optimize the use of computing resources, but only to improve an agent's behavior, we can systematically calculate the outputs of all the learning systems, and then merge them before making a decision. The idea is then that actions that meet with consensus are probably the best.
