Adapting Behaviour for Learning Progress
Tom Schaul, Diana Borsa, David Ding +4
Determining what experience to generate to best facilitate learning (i.e. exploration) is one of the distinguishing features and open challenges in reinforcement learning. The adve…
Conditional Importance Sampling for Off-Policy Learning
Mark Rowland, Anna Harutyunyan, Hado van Hasselt +4
The principal contribution of this paper is a conceptual framework for off-policy reinforcement learning, based on conditional expectations of importance sampling ratios. This fram…
General non-linear Bellman equations
Hado van Hasselt, John Quan, Matteo Hessel +3
We consider a general class of non-linear Bellman equations. These open up a design space of algorithms that have interesting properties, which has two potential advantages. First,…
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…
The Termination Critic
Anna Harutyunyan, Will Dabney, Diana Borsa +3
In this work, we consider the problem of autonomously discovering behavioral abstractions, or options, for reinforcement learning agents. We propose an algorithm that focuses on th…
Transfer in Deep Reinforcement Learning Using Successor Features and Generalised Policy Improvement
André Barreto, Diana Borsa, John Quan +6
The ability to transfer skills across tasks has the potential to scale up reinforcement learning (RL) agents to environments currently out of reach. Recently, a framework based on…
