Question

Temporal Difference Learning - What are the disadvantages of temporal difference learning?

Answer

When there are lengthy delays in rewards, TD learning may be skewed toward earlier rewards and result in slower convergence than MC approaches. In contrast, MC approaches do not update the value function depending on the total reward earned until the episode ends.
