Learning Symbolic Expressions via Gumbel-Max Equation Learner Networks

Gang Chen

Most of the neural networks (NNs) learned via state-of-the-art machine learning techniques are black-box models. For a widespread success of machine learning in science and enginee…

Merging Deterministic Policy Gradient Estimations with Varied Bias-Variance Tradeoff for Effective Deep Reinforcement Learning

Gang Chen

Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) on Markov decision processes (MDPs) with continuous action spaces is often approached by directly training parametric policies along the direction…

Off-Policy Actor-Critic in an Ensemble: Achieving Maximum General Entropy and Effective Environment Exploration in Deep Reinforcement Learning

Gang Chen, Yiming Peng

We propose a new policy iteration theory as an important extension of soft policy iteration and Soft Actor-Critic (SAC), one of the most efficient model free algorithms for deep re…

An Adaptive Clipping Approach for Proximal Policy Optimization

Gang Chen, Yiming Peng, Mengjie Zhang

Very recently proximal policy optimization (PPO) algorithms have been proposed as first-order optimization methods for effective reinforcement learning. While PPO is inspired by th…
