What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
This paper presents an opinionated set of ten desiderata intended to inform the design and evaluation of reinforcement-learning agents that learn continually throughout a continuing lifetime. We use these desiderata to examine a representative selection of existing approaches. Progress on individual desiderata is valuable, but the longer-term aim should be to integrate all ten within a single agent. To our knowledge, no published evaluation has yet provided evidence for such an integration. Likewise, the representative benchmarks we review probe different parts of this target, but separate evaluations do not establish that the corresponding properties coexist within one agent throughout a continuing lifetime. As a secondary contribution, we therefore present a compact persistent-world scenario as a playable companion to the desiderata and outline a proposed benchmark that examines a broad range of associated behavioral capabilities together within one such lifetime.
