Framework Overview of Agent and Environment Interaction

Caption

The framework illustrates how an agent interacts with a changing environment (E) that shifts on time scale τE. The agent senses the environment with a precision τc, here represented by four black-or-white bits. To estimate environmental trends, the agent combines current sensor readings with past memory, which fades over time τm. Coupling between the agent and environment either speeds up or slows down environmental change (τf).
