Title
An experimental comparison between ATNoSFERES and ACS
Abstract
After two papers comparing ATNoSFERES with XCSM, a Learning Classifier System with internal states, this paper is devoted to a comparison between ATNoSFERES and ACS (an Anticipatory Learning Classifier System). As previously, we focus on the way perceptual aliazing problems encountered in non-Markov environments are solved with both kinds of systems. We shortly present ATNoSFERES, a framework based on an indirect encoding Genetic Algorithm which builds finite-state automata controllers, and we compare it with ACS through two benchmark experiments. The comparison shows that the difference in performance between both system depends on the environment. This raises a discussion of the adequacy of both adaptive mechanisms to particular subclasses of non-Markov problems. Furthermore, since ACS converges much faster than ATNoSFERES, we discuss the need to introduce learning capabilities in our model. As a conclusion, we advocate for the need of more experimental comparisons between different systems in the Learning Classifier System community.
