Optimistic World Models: Efficient Exploration in Model-Based Deep Reinforcement Learning

Akshay Mete, Shahid Aamir Sheikh, Tzu-Hsiang Lin +2

Efficient exploration remains a central challenge in reinforcement learning (RL), particularly in sparse-reward environments. We introduce Optimistic World Models (OWMs), a princip…

Value-Biased Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Model-based Reinforcement Learning in Discounted Linear MDPs

Yu-Heng Hung, Ping-Chun Hsieh, Akshay Mete +1

We consider the infinite-horizon linear Markov Decision Processes (MDPs), where the transition probabilities of the dynamic model can be linearly parameterized with the help of a p…

Finite Time Regret Bounds for Minimum Variance Control of Autoregressive Systems with Exogenous Inputs

Rahul Singh, Akshay Mete, Avik Kar +1

Minimum variance controllers have been employed in a wide-range of industrial applications. A key challenge experienced by many adaptive controllers is their poor empirical perform…

Augmented RBMLE-UCB Approach for Adaptive Control of Linear Quadratic Systems

Akshay Mete, Rahul Singh, P. R. Kumar

We consider the problem of controlling an unknown stochastic linear system with quadratic costs - called the adaptive LQ control problem. We re-examine an approach called ''Reward…

Reward Biased Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Reinforcement Learning

Akshay Mete, Rahul Singh, Xi Liu +1

The Reward-Biased Maximum Likelihood Estimate (RBMLE) for adaptive control of Markov chains was proposed to overcome the central obstacle of what is variously called the fundamenta…
