6.2. Future Works

The ideas presented in this thesis may be potentially developed in the following directions:

  • Research on compacting the created population \([P]\) [72]. The current solution evolves a set of distinct classifiers representing fine-grained niches of search space. An online process capable of merging neighbouring rules would positively impact the overall performance and transparency.

  • Investigation of agent’s behaviour for non-stationary and non-deterministic environments. Problems like noise perception, of concept drifting where the agent has to refine population of classifiers over time.

  • Utilization of specific ALCS mechanisms like action planning to optimize the process of building an internal model of the real-valued environment.

  • Efficient way of tuning system parameters. ALCS comprises numerous hyper-parameters; therefore, employing a heuristic process would contribute to better performance.
