Abstract
A computer-implemented system and method for storing data associated with an agent in a multi-dimensional environment via a memory architecture. The memory architecture is structured so that each unique position in the environment corresponds to a unique position within the memory architecture, thereby allowing the memory architecture to store features located at a particular position in the environment in a memory location specific to that location. As the agent traverses the environment, the agent compares the features at the agent's particular position to a summary of the features stored throughout the memory architecture and writes the features that correspond to the summary to the coordinates in the memory architecture that correspond to the agent's position. The system and method allows agents to learn, using a reinforcement signal, how to behave when acting in an environment that requires storing information over long time steps.
