Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These 'learning operators' define a space of possible transformations through which a system must search for a [sic] efficient planner. We show that the complexity of this search precludes a general solution and can only be approached via simplifications. We illustrate the frequently unarticulated commitments which underly current learning approaches. These simplifications improve learning efficiency but not without tradeoffs. In some cases these tradeoffs result in less than optimal behavior. In others, they produce planners which become worse through learning. It is hoped that by articulating these commitments we can better understand their ramifications.
