SIMS: Scale-Invariant Merit-Function-Based Scalarization for Multi-Task Learning proposes a new scalarization method for multi-task learning that is invariant to the relative scales of task losses. By using a logarithmic transformation, SIMS converts the multi-objective problem into a single objective that preserves weak Pareto optimality and allows a smooth surrogate with controllable approximation error. Experiments on standard multi-task benchmarks show that SIMS consistently outperforms existing scalarization methods and achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance.

The paper introduces a diagnostic workflow for multi‑objective reinforcement learning (MORL) that reveals behavioral differences among policies on the Pareto front, which are not apparent from value vectors alone. It offers quantitative and visual tools to inspect these variations and demonstrates their effectiveness on both simple grid tasks and more complex continuous‑control benchmarks.
