A General Control-Theoretic Approach for Reinforcement Learning: Theory and Algorithms
Weiqin Chen, Mark S. Squillante, Chai Wah Wu +1
We devise a control-theoretic reinforcement learning approach to support direct learning of the optimal policy. We establish various theoretical properties of our approach, such as…
Provable Domain Adaptation for Offline Reinforcement Learning with Limited Samples
Weiqin Chen, Xinjie Zhang, Sandipan Mishra +1
Offline reinforcement learning (RL) learns effective policies from a static target dataset. The performance of state-of-the-art offline RL algorithms notwithstanding, it relies on…
ConstrainedSQL: Training LLMs for Text2SQL via Constrained Reinforcement Learning
Weiqin Chen, Nhan Huu Pham, Michael Robert Glass +4
Reinforcement learning (RL) has demonstrated significant promise in enhancing the reasoning capabilities of Text2SQL LLMs, especially with advanced algorithms such as GRPO and DAPO…
Filtering Learning Histories Enhances In-Context Reinforcement Learning
Weiqin Chen, Xinjie Zhang, Dharmashankar Subramanian +1
Transformer models (TMs) have exhibited remarkable in-context reinforcement learning (ICRL) capabilities, allowing them to generalize to and improve in previously unseen environmen…
Random Policy Enables In-Context Reinforcement Learning within Trust Horizons
Weiqin Chen, Santiago Paternain
Pretrained foundation models have exhibited extraordinary in-context learning performance, allowing zero-shot generalization to new tasks not encountered during pretraining. In the…
