Sample Efficient Policy Gradient Methods with Recursive Variance Reduction
Pan Xu, Felicia Gao, Quanquan Gu
Improving the sample efficiency in reinforcement learning has been a long-standing research problem. In this work, we aim to reduce the sample complexity of existing policy gradien…

An Improved Convergence Analysis of Stochastic Variance-Reduced Policy Gradient
Pan Xu, Felicia Gao, Quanquan Gu
We revisit the stochastic variance-reduced policy gradient (SVRPG) method proposed by Papini et al. (2018) for reinforcement learning. We provide an improved convergence analysis o…
