Belief-Based Offline Reinforcement Learning for Delay-Robust Policy Optimization

Simon Sinong Zhan, Qingyuan Wu, Philip Wang +4

Offline-to-online deployment of reinforcement-learning (RL) agents must bridge two gaps: (1) the sim-to-real gap, where real systems add latency and other imperfections not present…
