In this paper, we present a generalized temporal-difference (TD) reinforcement learning framework based on the theory of conditional expectations. The value and action-value (Q-value) functions are treated as uncertain quantities, and their estimation is formulated as a stochastic inference problem.

arXiv:2503. 18607v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce the Switching Non-Stationary Markov Decision Process (SNS-MDP) framework, in which the environment transitions among a finite set of MDPs governed by a latent Markov chain while the agent observes only the external state.

arXiv:2603. 23461v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study reinforcement learning (RL) with linear function approximation in Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) satisfying \emph{linear Bellman completeness} -- a fundamental setting where the Bellman backup of any linear value function remains linear.
