Mitigating Partial Observability in Sequential Decision Processes via the Lambda Discrepancy

Cameron Allen, Aaron Kirtland, Ruo Yu Tao +7

Reinforcement learning algorithms typically rely on the assumption that the environment dynamics and value function can be expressed in terms of a Markovian state representation. H…

An Optimal Tightness Bound for the Simulation Lemma

Sam Lobel, Ronald Parr

We present a bound for value-prediction error with respect to model misspecification that is tight, including constant factors. This is a direct improvement of the "simulation lemm…

Flipping Coins to Estimate Pseudocounts for Exploration in Reinforcement Learning

Sam Lobel, Akhil Bagaria, George Konidaris

We propose a new method for count-based exploration in high-dimensional state spaces. Unlike previous work which relies on density models, we show that counts can be derived by ave…

Coarse-Grained Smoothness for RL in Metric Spaces

Omer Gottesman, Kavosh Asadi, Cameron Allen +3

Principled decision-making in continuous state--action spaces is impossible without some assumptions. A common approach is to assume Lipschitz continuity of the Q-function. We show…

Towards Amortized Ranking-Critical Training for Collaborative Filtering

Sam Lobel, Chunyuan Li, Jianfeng Gao +1

Collaborative filtering is widely used in modern recommender systems. Recent research shows that variational autoencoders (VAEs) yield state-of-the-art performance by integrating f…
