Maintaining Plasticity in Continual Learning via Regenerative Regularization
Saurabh Kumar, Henrik Marklund, Benjamin Van Roy
In continual learning, plasticity refers to the ability of an agent to quickly adapt to new information. Neural networks are known to lose plasticity when processing non-stationary…
On the Convergence of Bounded Agents
David Abel, André Barreto, Hado van Hasselt +3
When has an agent converged? Standard models of the reinforcement learning problem give rise to a straightforward definition of convergence: An agent converges when its behavior or…
A Definition of Continual Reinforcement Learning
David Abel, André Barreto, Benjamin Van Roy +3
In a standard view of the reinforcement learning problem, an agent's goal is to efficiently identify a policy that maximizes long-term reward. However, this perspective is based on…
Continual Learning as Computationally Constrained Reinforcement Learning
Saurabh Kumar, Henrik Marklund, Ashish Rao +4
An agent that efficiently accumulates knowledge to develop increasingly sophisticated skills over a long lifetime could advance the frontier of artificial intelligence capabilities…
Bayesian Reinforcement Learning with Limited Cognitive Load
Dilip Arumugam, Mark K. Ho, Noah D. Goodman +1
All biological and artificial agents must learn and make decisions given limits on their ability to process information. As such, a general theory of adaptive behavior should be ab…
Approximate Thompson Sampling via Epistemic Neural Networks
Ian Osband, Zheng Wen, Seyed Mohammad Asghari +4
Thompson sampling (TS) is a popular heuristic for action selection, but it requires sampling from a posterior distribution. Unfortunately, this can become computationally intractab…
