Interface SupervisedVFA

public interface SupervisedVFA

An interface for learning value function approximation via a supervised learning algorithm. This interface defines the method train(java.util.List<burlap.behavior.functionapproximation.supervised.SupervisedVFA.SupervisedVFAInstance>) which takes as input a list of SupervisedVFA.SupervisedVFAInstance objects, runs a regression algorithm, and returns the learned function, which is an interface of ValueFunction.

A SupervisedVFA.SupervisedVFAInstance is a pair consisting of a State and the target state value that is to be learned.
