  • Abstract
    We analyze the behaviour of a generalised TD(λ) algorithm with constant step size. We first consider linear estimation of the optimal cost. By using realisation-wise averaging analysis we prove for the first time, boundedness under a positive real condition. We also provide for the first time, a detailed analysis of second order fluctuations of a TD(λ) type algorithm. We then consider nonlinear estimation of the optimal cost.
