Uncertainty Representations in State-Space Layers for Deep Reinforcement Learning under Partial Observability
Carlos E. Luis, Alessandro G. Bottero, Julia Vinogradska +2
Optimal decision-making under partial observability requires reasoning about the uncertainty of the environment's hidden state. However, most reinforcement learning architectures h…
Model-Based Epistemic Variance of Values for Risk-Aware Policy Optimization
Carlos E. Luis, Alessandro G. Bottero, Julia Vinogradska +2
We consider the problem of quantifying uncertainty over expected cumulative rewards in model-based reinforcement learning. In particular, we focus on characterizing the variance ov…
Value-Distributional Model-Based Reinforcement Learning
Carlos E. Luis, Alessandro G. Bottero, Julia Vinogradska +2
Quantifying uncertainty about a policy's long-term performance is important to solve sequential decision-making tasks. We study the problem from a model-based Bayesian reinforcemen…
Information-Theoretic Safe Bayesian Optimization
Alessandro G. Bottero, Carlos E. Luis, Julia Vinogradska +2
We consider a sequential decision making task, where the goal is to optimize an unknown function without evaluating parameters that violate an a~priori unknown (safety) constraint.…
