Provable RL with Exogenous Distractors via Multistep Inverse Dynamics

Yonathan Efroni, Dipendra Misra, Akshay Krishnamurthy +2

Many real-world applications of reinforcement learning (RL) require the agent to deal with high-dimensional observations such as those generated from a megapixel camera. Prior work…

Bellman-consistent Pessimism for Offline Reinforcement Learning

Tengyang Xie, Ching-An Cheng, Nan Jiang +2

The use of pessimism, when reasoning about datasets lacking exhaustive exploration has recently gained prominence in offline reinforcement learning. Despite the robustness it adds…

Cautiously Optimistic Policy Optimization and Exploration with Linear Function Approximation

Andrea Zanette, Ching-An Cheng, Alekh Agarwal

Policy optimization methods are popular reinforcement learning algorithms, because their incremental and on-policy nature makes them more stable than the value-based counterparts.…

Towards a Dimension-Free Understanding of Adaptive Linear Control

Juan C. Perdomo, Max Simchowitz, Alekh Agarwal +1

We study the problem of adaptive control of the linear quadratic regulator for systems in very high, or even infinite dimension. We demonstrate that while sublinear regret requires…

Model-free Representation Learning and Exploration in Low-rank MDPs

Aditya Modi, Jinglin Chen, Akshay Krishnamurthy +2

The low rank MDP has emerged as an important model for studying representation learning and exploration in reinforcement learning. With a known representation, several model-free e…
