The Trajectory Alignment Coefficient in Two Acts: From Reward Tuning to Reward Learning

Calarina Muslimani, Yunshu Du, Kenta Kawamoto +3

The success of reinforcement learning (RL) is fundamentally tied to having a reward function that accurately reflects the task objective. Yet, designing reward functions is notorio…

Noise-Robust Bidirectional Learning with Dynamic Sample Reweighting

Chen-Chen Zong, Zheng-Tao Cao, Hong-Tao Guo +4

Deep neural networks trained with standard cross-entropy loss are more prone to memorize noisy labels, which degrades their performance. Negative learning using complementary label…

Lucid Dreaming for Experience Replay: Refreshing Past States with the Current Policy

Yunshu Du, Garrett Warnell, Assefaw Gebremedhin +2

Experience replay (ER) improves the data efficiency of off-policy reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms by allowing an agent to store and reuse its past experiences in a replay bu…

Jointly Pre-training with Supervised, Autoencoder, and Value Losses for Deep Reinforcement Learning

Gabriel V. de la Cruz, Yunshu Du, Matthew E. Taylor

Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) algorithms are known to be data inefficient. One reason is that a DRL agent learns both the feature and the policy tabula rasa. Integrating prior…
