arXiv:2608. 06595v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural networks applied to sequential decision-making tasks typically rely on latent representations of environment states.
arXiv:2602. 12643v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present Unified Latent Dynamics (ULD), a novel reinforcement learning algorithm that unifies the efficiency of model-free methods with the representational strengths of model-based approaches, without incurring planning overhead.
arXiv:2603. 05296v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Offline reinforcement learning (RL) allows robots to learn from offline datasets without risky exploration.
arXiv:2606. 04275v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present a novel theoretical framework for deep reinforcement learning (RL) in continuous environments by modeling the problem as a continuous-time stochastic process, drawing on insights from stochastic control.
arXiv:2607. 27924v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In the physical world we inhabit, space and time are fundamentally continuous.
arXiv:2606. 20411v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Direct Advantage Estimation (DAE) has been shown to improve the sample efficiency of deep reinforcement learning algorithms.
In the physical world we inhabit, space and time are fundamentally continuous. However, existing machine learning paradigms for world modeling are largely confined to discrete-time prediction, thereby exhibiting significant inefficiency in capturing the dynamics of physical world.
arXiv:2506. 09276v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper presents a state representation framework for Markov decision processes (MDPs) that can be learned solely from state trajectories, requiring neither reward signals nor the actions executed by the agent.
arXiv:2608. 06015v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep Reinforcement Learning (RL) is notoriously sample inefficient.
arXiv:2608. 10634v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Model-based reinforcement learning (MBRL), which learns environment dynamics to generate synthetic experience, is a promising approach to sample-efficient decision making.
Deep Reinforcement Learning (RL) is notoriously sample inefficient. One contributing factor is that RL agents are typically initialized from scratch, forcing them to acquire task-relevant knowledge through online interaction.
arXiv:2601. 23075v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: On-policy Reinforcement Learning (RL) remains a dominant paradigm for continuous control, yet standard implementations rely on Gaussian actors and relatively shallow MLP policies, often leading to brittle optimization when gradients are noisy, and policy updates must be conservative.
arXiv:2606. 20104v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Perception for action suggests that representations of the world should be shaped not by visual fidelity alone, but by their relevance for actions.
