J. G. BARTO . le+08 . 5 QJ ~ C QJ ell s.. 1 1e+03 le+04 Figure 5. Performance of RLS TD on a randomly generated 50 state ergodic Markov chain. The x-axis measures the TD error variance of the test Markov chain, which was varied over five distinct values from (Tm = 10- 1 through (Tm = 10 3 by scaling the cost function R. The y-axis measures the average convergence time over 100 training runs of on-line learning. The parameter vector was considered to have converged when the average of the error II Bt - B* II 00 fell below 10- 2 and stayed below this value thereafter.
