On the Foundation of Distributionally Robust Reinforcement Learning

Shengbo Wang, Nian Si, Jose Blanchet +1

Motivated by the need for a robust policy in the face of environment shifts between training and deployment, we contribute to the theoretical foundation of distributionally robust…

Optimal Sample Complexity for Average Reward Markov Decision Processes

Shengbo Wang, Jose Blanchet, Peter Glynn

We resolve the open question regarding the sample complexity of policy learning for maximizing the long-run average reward associated with a uniformly ergodic Markov decision proce…

Sample Complexity of Variance-reduced Distributionally Robust Q-learning

Shengbo Wang, Nian Si, Jose Blanchet +1

Dynamic decision-making under distributional shifts is of fundamental interest in theory and applications of reinforcement learning: The distribution of the environment in which th…

A Finite Sample Complexity Bound for Distributionally Robust Q-learning

Shengbo Wang, Nian Si, Jose Blanchet +1

We consider a reinforcement learning setting in which the deployment environment is different from the training environment. Applying a robust Markov decision processes formulation…

Optimal Sample Complexity of Stable Discounted Markov Decision Processes

Shengbo Wang, Jose Blanchet, Peter Glynn

We study the optimal sample complexity of tabular reinforcement learning for infinite-horizon discounted Markov decision processes. The unrestricted minimax sample complexity is kn…
