An input generalization problem is one of the most important in applying reinforcement learning to real robot tasks. To cope with this problem, we propose a self-partitioning state space algorithm, which can make nonuniform quantization of state space. To show that our algorithm has generalization capability, we apply our method to two tasks in which a soccer robot shoots a ball into a goal and prevent a ball from entering a goal. To show the validity of this method, the experimental results for computer simulation and a real robot are shown.
