Prerequisite chain
Prerequisites for Options and Temporal Abstraction
Topics you need before working through Options and Temporal Abstraction. Direct prerequisites are listed first; transitive prerequisites (the chain reachable through them) follow.
Direct prerequisites (2)
- Markov Decision Processeslayer 2, tier 1
- Value Iteration and Policy Iterationlayer 2, tier 1
Reachable through the chain (13)
These topics are not directly cited as prerequisites but are reached transitively by following the chain upward. Working through the direct prerequisites pulls these in.
