Title: Improving Policies without Measuring Merits Abstract: Performing policy iteration in dynamic programming should only require knowledge of relative rather than absolute measures of the utility of actions what Baird (1993) calls the advantages of actions at states. Nevertheless, existing methods in dynamic progr...
