Reinforcement learning (RL) methods have become popular machine learning techniques in recent years. RL has had some experimental successes and has been shown to exhibit some desirable properties in theory, but it has often been found very slow in practice. In this paper we introduce behavior transfer, a novel approach to speeding up traditional RL. We present experimental results showing a learner is able learn one task and then use behavior transfer to markedly reduce the total training time for a more complex task.
