Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a machine learning framework to control an autonomous agent in a dynamic environment. A system according to the disclosure includes a sensor coupled to the autonomous agent to receive a set of inputs. At least one actuator causes the autonomous agent to perform an action. A controller causes the actuator to perform an action based on the inputs and an operative policy. The controller determines whether the operative policy is terminated, based on the set of inputs. Upon terminating the operative policy, the controller evaluates several candidate policies and selects one of the candidate policies as a new operative policy.
