Reinforcement Learning with Chromatic Networks for Compact Architecture Search
Xingyou Song, Krzysztof Choromanski, Jack Parker-Holder +6
We present a neural architecture search algorithm to construct compact reinforcement learning (RL) policies, by combining ENAS and ES in a highly scalable and intuitive way. By def…
Learning to Score Behaviors for Guided Policy Optimization
Aldo Pacchiano, Jack Parker-Holder, Yunhao Tang +3
We introduce a new approach for comparing reinforcement learning policies, using Wasserstein distances (WDs) in a newly defined latent behavioral space. We show that by utilizing t…
Structured Monte Carlo Sampling for Nonisotropic Distributions via Determinantal Point Processes
Krzysztof Choromanski, Aldo Pacchiano, Jack Parker-Holder +1
We propose a new class of structured methods for Monte Carlo (MC) sampling, called DPPMC, designed for high-dimensional nonisotropic distributions where samples are correlated to r…
From Complexity to Simplicity: Adaptive ES-Active Subspaces for Blackbox Optimization
Krzysztof Choromanski, Aldo Pacchiano, Jack Parker-Holder +1
We present a new algorithm ASEBO for optimizing high-dimensional blackbox functions. ASEBO adapts to the geometry of the function and learns optimal sets of sensing directions, whi…
Provably Robust Blackbox Optimization for Reinforcement Learning
Krzysztof Choromanski, Aldo Pacchiano, Jack Parker-Holder +6
Interest in derivative-free optimization (DFO) and "evolutionary strategies" (ES) has recently surged in the Reinforcement Learning (RL) community, with growing evidence that they…
