arXiv:2607. 06121v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this paper, we investigate whether a model-free RL agent can identify and exploit price manipulation opportunities more effectively than a traditional model-based approach that assumes correct specification of the data-generating process but relies on noisy parameter estimates.

arXiv:2608. 15770v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Designing effective trading strategies using reinforcement learning remains challenging due to delayed and noisy rewards, poor exploration, and the difficulty of enforcing explicit risk constraints.

arXiv:2607. 06610v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Portfolio optimization under uncertainty is inherently a multi-objective decision problem involving complex interactions among return, risk, market dynamics, and practical investment constraints.

arXiv:2607. 20533v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Portfolio construction under the Black-Litterman model requires investors to specify views on asset returns alongside explicit uncertainty estimates -- a process that remains largely subjective and difficult to scale.

META (Memory Enhanced Trading Agent) is a new agent-based trading framework that augments large language models with episodic memory. It combines specialized indicator agents—such as Trend, MACD, Stochastic, RSI, SMA, AVWAP, and Heikin‑Ashi—with a Decision Agent that fuses their reports, while a Memory module retrieves and updates past trading episodes encoded as market state embeddings with outcomes and reflections. By recalling relevant experiences and adaptively reweighting signals under similar market regimes, META improves directional accuracy and robustness in short‑horizon evaluations, offering regime‑aware, interpretable, and low‑latency decision‑making for financial trading.

The paper introduces Uncertainty-Driven Replay Memory (UDRM), a new experience replay buffer for reinforcement learning that prioritizes storing transitions with high uncertainty estimates. Unlike traditional buffers that rely on temporal difference error or transition distributions, UDRM updates its contents based on uncertainty derived from the RL model during training. Experiments show that this uncertainty-aware buffer leads to higher rewards during training compared to other uncertainty-aware RL frameworks.

arXiv:2606. 10359v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI agents in supply chains face a fundamental epistemic gap: large language models (LLMs) interpret policies but lack physical grounding, while reinforcement learning (RL) optimizes flows but is semantically blind to unstructured constraints.

arXiv:2607. 14373v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We propose a noise-robust elicit-to-optimize framework that integrates inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) and reinforcement learning (RL) for eliciting agents' risk preferences and optimizing policies under a broad class of risk objectives characterized by distortion riskmetrics.
