Using Reward Uncertainty to Induce Diverse Behaviour in Reinforcement Learning

Anthony GX-Chen, Ankit Anand, Gheorghe Comanici +7

Classical reinforcement learning (RL) typically seeks a deterministic policy that maximizes the expected sum of a scalar reward. Yet, modern applications such as language model fin…

Cracking the Code of Action: a Generative Approach to Affordances for Reinforcement Learning

Lynn Cherif, Flemming Kondrup, David Venuto +3

Agents that can autonomously navigate the web through a graphical user interface (GUI) using a unified action space (e.g., mouse and keyboard actions) can require very large amount…

Code as Reward: Empowering Reinforcement Learning with VLMs

David Venuto, Sami Nur Islam, Martin Klissarov +3

Pre-trained Vision-Language Models (VLMs) are able to understand visual concepts, describe and decompose complex tasks into sub-tasks, and provide feedback on task completion. In t…

Finding Increasingly Large Extremal Graphs with AlphaZero and Tabu Search

Abbas Mehrabian, Ankit Anand, Hyunjik Kim +16

This work studies a central extremal graph theory problem inspired by a 1975 conjecture of Erdős, which aims to find graphs with a given size (number of nodes) that maximize the nu…

Policy composition in reinforcement learning via multi-objective policy optimization

Shruti Mishra, Ankit Anand, Jordan Hoffmann +4

We enable reinforcement learning agents to learn successful behavior policies by utilizing relevant pre-existing teacher policies. The teacher policies are introduced as objectives…

Accelerating exploration and representation learning with offline pre-training

Bogdan Mazoure, Jake Bruce, Doina Precup +2

Sequential decision-making agents struggle with long horizon tasks, since solving them requires multi-step reasoning. Most reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms address this chall…
