DAMPER: Return-Prioritized Gradient Control for Smooth Policies

Seokmin Ko, Taewon Goo, Kihyuk Hong

Actor-critic methods achieve strong performance in continuous control, but their policies can produce highly oscillatory actions. A common remedy is to add auxiliary smoothness los…

Minimax-Optimality of Posterior Sampling for Reinforcement Learning

Taewon Goo, Kihyuk Hong

Posterior sampling for reinforcement learning (PSRL) is one of the simplest and most effective exploration methods, but a basic question has remained open: does unmodified PSRL ach…

Offline Constrained Reinforcement Learning under Partial Data Coverage

Seokmin Ko, Ambuj Tewari, Kihyuk Hong

We study offline constrained reinforcement learning with general function approximation in discounted constrained Markov decision processes. Prior methods either require full data…

A Computationally Efficient Algorithm for Infinite-Horizon Average-Reward Linear MDPs

Kihyuk Hong, Ambuj Tewari

We study reinforcement learning in infinite-horizon average-reward settings with linear MDPs. Previous work addresses this problem by approximating the average-reward setting by di…

A Primal-Dual Algorithm for Offline Constrained Reinforcement Learning with Linear MDPs

Kihyuk Hong, Ambuj Tewari

We study offline reinforcement learning (RL) with linear MDPs under the infinite-horizon discounted setting which aims to learn a policy that maximizes the expected discounted cumu…

An Optimization-based Algorithm for Non-stationary Kernel Bandits without Prior Knowledge

Kihyuk Hong, Yuhang Li, Ambuj Tewari

We propose an algorithm for non-stationary kernel bandits that does not require prior knowledge of the degree of non-stationarity. The algorithm follows randomized strategies obtai…
