Policy Certificates: Towards Accountable Reinforcement Learning

Christoph Dann, Lihong Li, Wei Wei +1

The performance of a reinforcement learning algorithm can vary drastically during learning because of exploration. Existing algorithms provide little information about the quality…

Breaking the Curse of Horizon: Infinite-Horizon Off-Policy Estimation

Qiang Liu, Lihong Li, Ziyang Tang +1

We consider the off-policy estimation problem of estimating the expected reward of a target policy using samples collected by a different behavior policy. Importance sampling (IS)…

Adversarial Attacks on Stochastic Bandits

Kwang-Sung Jun, Lihong Li, Yuzhe Ma +1

We study adversarial attacks that manipulate the reward signals to control the actions chosen by a stochastic multi-armed bandit algorithm. We propose the first attack against two…

Neural Approaches to Conversational AI

Jianfeng Gao, Michel Galley, Lihong Li

The present paper surveys neural approaches to conversational AI that have been developed in the last few years. We group conversational systems into three categories: (1) question…

Data Poisoning Attacks in Contextual Bandits

Yuzhe Ma, Kwang-Sung Jun, Lihong Li +1

We study offline data poisoning attacks in contextual bandits, a class of reinforcement learning problems with important applications in online recommendation and adaptive medical…

Scalable Bilinear Learning Using State and Action Features

Yichen Chen, Lihong Li, Mengdi Wang

Approximate linear programming (ALP) represents one of the major algorithmic families to solve large-scale Markov decision processes (MDP). In this work, we study a primal-dual for…
