Heuristic Learning: A New Reinforcement Learning Paradigm for Continual Learning
The article proposes Heuristic Learning (HL) as a way to tackle continual learning’s catastrophic forgetting by using coding agents that iteratively refine rule‑based policies, showing empirical gains on Atari, MuJoCo, and VizDoom tasks and outlining HL’s benefits, challenges, and future integration with neural networks.
