5. Consider four different ways to derive the value of αk from k in Q-learning (note that for Qlearning with varying αk, there must be a different count k for each state–action pair).

(a) Let αk = 1/k.

(b) Let αk = 10/(9 + k).

(c) Let αk = 0.1.

(d) Let αk = 0.1 for the first 10,000 steps, αk = 0.01 for the next 10,000 steps, αk = 0.001 for the next 10,000 steps, αk = 0.0001 for the next 10,000 steps, and so on.

(a) Which of these will converge to the true Q-value in theory?

(b) Which converges to the true Q-value in practice (i.e., in a reasonable number of steps)? Try it for more than one domain.

(c) Which are able to adapt if the environment changes slowly?
