Extracting bottlenecks improves considerably the speed of learning and the ability knowledge transferring in reinforcement learning. But, extracting bottlenecks is a challenge in reinforcement learning and it typically requires prior knowledge and designer’s help. This paper will propose a new method that extracts bottlenecks for reinforcement learning agent automatically. We have inspired of biological systems, behavioral analysts and routing animals and the agent works on the basis of its interacting to environment. The agent finds landmarks based in clustering and hierarchical object recognition. If these landmarks in actions space are close to each other, bottlenecks are extracted using the states between them. The Experimental results show a considerable improvement in the process of learning in comparison to some key methods in the literature.
