explain the difference between Manhattan distance and Euclidean distance. Then, choose the most appropriate one for this RL example. Justify your rationale.
Added by Kyle C.
Step 1
Before choosing a distance metric, you should know: is the state space discrete (grid) or continuous? Are actions axis-aligned (up/down/left/right) or free-directional? Is the distance used as a planning heuristic, for k-NN/value generalization, for reward shaping Show more…
