Abstract

We present a model of Reinforcement Learning, which consists of modified neural-network architecture with spatio-temporal connections, known as Temporal Hebbian Self-Organizing Map (THSOM). A number of experiments were conducted to test the model on the maze solving problem. The algorithm demonstrates sustainable learning, building a near to optimal routes. This work describes an agents behavior in the mazes of different complexity and also influence of models parameters at the length of formed paths.
