In this study we present a sparse Bayesian framework for value function approximation. The proposed method is based on the on-line construction of a dictionary of states which are collected during the exploration of the environment by the agent. A linear regression model is established for the observed partial discounted return of such dictionary states, where we employ the Relevance Vector Machine (RVM) and exploit its enhanced modeling capability due to the embedded sparsity properties. In order to speed-up the optimization procedure and allow dealing with large-scale problems, an incremental strategy is adopted. A number of experiments have been conducted on both simulated and real environments, where we took promising results in comparison with another Bayesian approach that uses Gaussian processes.
