Adapting the Function Approximation Architecture in Online Reinforcement Learning
John D. Martin, Joseph Modayil
The performance of a reinforcement learning (RL) system depends on the computational architecture used to approximate a value function. Deep learning methods provide both optimizat…
On Inductive Biases in Deep Reinforcement Learning
Matteo Hessel, Hado van Hasselt, Joseph Modayil +1
Many deep reinforcement learning algorithms contain inductive biases that sculpt the agent's objective and its interface to the environment. These inductive biases can take many fo…
Ray Interference: a Source of Plateaus in Deep Reinforcement Learning
Tom Schaul, Diana Borsa, Joseph Modayil +1
Rather than proposing a new method, this paper investigates an issue present in existing learning algorithms. We study the learning dynamics of reinforcement learning (RL), specifi…
Deep Reinforcement Learning and the Deadly Triad
Hado van Hasselt, Yotam Doron, Florian Strub +3
We know from reinforcement learning theory that temporal difference learning can fail in certain cases. Sutton and Barto (2018) identify a deadly triad of function approximation, b…
The Barbados 2018 List of Open Issues in Continual Learning
Tom Schaul, Hado van Hasselt, Joseph Modayil +7
We want to make progress toward artificial general intelligence, namely general-purpose agents that autonomously learn how to competently act in complex environments. The purpose o…
Building Machines that Learn and Think for Themselves: Commentary on Lake et al., Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2017
M. Botvinick, D. G. T. Barrett, P. Battaglia +16
We agree with Lake and colleagues on their list of key ingredients for building humanlike intelligence, including the idea that model-based reasoning is essential. However, we favo…
