A key challenge in solving the deterministic inverse reinforcement learning problem online and in real time is the existence of non-unique solutions. Nonuniqueness necessitates the study of the notion of equivalent solutions and convergence to such solutions. While \emph{offline} algorithms that result in convergence to equivalent solutions have been developed in the literature, online, real-time techniques that address nonuniqueness are not available. In this paper, a regularized history stack observer is developed to generate solutions that are approximately equivalent. Novel data-richness conditions are developed to facilitate the analysis and simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed technique.
