Sample-efficient policy learning from pixels is a long-standing challenge in reinforcement learning (RL). Recent dynamics-based representation learning methods have significantly improved the sample efficiency of model-free visual RL by learning dynamics-aware representations through auxiliary prediction performed either in latent space (self-prediction) or observation space (observation prediction).
