Learning how to Interact with a Complex Interface using Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning
Gheorghe Comanici, Amelia Glaese, Anita Gergely +5
Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning (HRL) allows interactive agents to decompose complex problems into a hierarchy of sub-tasks. Higher-level tasks can invoke the solutions of lowe…
Temporally Abstract Partial Models
Khimya Khetarpal, Zafarali Ahmed, Gheorghe Comanici +1
Humans and animals have the ability to reason and make predictions about different courses of action at many time scales. In reinforcement learning, option models (Sutton, Precup \…
AndroidEnv: A Reinforcement Learning Platform for Android
Daniel Toyama, Philippe Hamel, Anita Gergely +6
We introduce AndroidEnv, an open-source platform for Reinforcement Learning (RL) research built on top of the Android ecosystem. AndroidEnv allows RL agents to interact with a wide…
What can I do here? A Theory of Affordances in Reinforcement Learning
Khimya Khetarpal, Zafarali Ahmed, Gheorghe Comanici +2
Reinforcement learning algorithms usually assume that all actions are always available to an agent. However, both people and animals understand the general link between the feature…
Marginalized State Distribution Entropy Regularization in Policy Optimization
Riashat Islam, Zafarali Ahmed, Doina Precup
Entropy regularization is used to get improved optimization performance in reinforcement learning tasks. A common form of regularization is to maximize policy entropy to avoid prem…
Understanding the impact of entropy on policy optimization
Zafarali Ahmed, Nicolas Le Roux, Mohammad Norouzi +1
Entropy regularization is commonly used to improve policy optimization in reinforcement learning. It is believed to help with \emph{exploration} by encouraging the selection of mor…
