Abstract
This paper focuses on developing a team of mobile robots capable of learning via human interaction. A modified Q-learning algorithm incorporating a teacher is proposed. The paper first concentrates on simplifying the Q-learning algorithm to be implemented on small and simple team of robots having limited capabilities of memory and computational power. Second it concentrates on the incorporation of a human teacher in the Q-learning algorithm. Experiments using the well-known robot simulator Webots on both single and multi-target tracking tasks have been conducted. The achieved results show the success of the proposed algorithm in the over all system performance.
