The paper introduces Dually Regularized AIL, a model‑free algorithm for adversarial imitation learning that jointly applies KL policy regularization and a quadratic reward penalty based on expert and learner occupancies. It proves fast convergence rates, achieving a ×O(1/K+1/N) bound on the regularized imitation gap in finite‑horizon MDPs with general function approximation, and establishes the first algorithm to attain ×O(1/ε) sample complexity in both expert demonstrations and online interactions for this regularized objective.
arXiv:2606. 09758v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Parametric imitation learning via behavior cloning can suffer from poor generalization to out-of-distribution states due to compounding errors during deployment.
arXiv:2605. 27095v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Learning from demonstrations in embodied control is often cast as behavioral cloning, and recent diffusion or flow-matching policies improve this paradigm by modeling multi-modal expert actions.
arXiv:2607. 01225v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prior work on imitation learning from suboptimal demonstrations typically relies on compressed supervision signals such as confidence estimates, discriminator scores, or importance weights.
arXiv:2609.38407v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Purpose: Behavior cloning can accumulate errors when a learned controller visits states outside the demonstrated distribution. This study evaluates whe...
arXiv:2602. 02762v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Semi-supervised imitation learning (SSIL) consists in learning a policy from a small dataset of action-labeled trajectories and a much larger dataset of action-free trajectories.
