arXiv:2608. 11052v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) aims to recover a reward function under which the resulting policy reproduces the behavior observed in expert demonstrations.
arXiv:2605. 11020v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) is typically formulated as maximizing entropy subject to matching the distribution of expert trajectories.
arXiv:2607. 28849v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Bilevel reinforcement learning (RL) is an important framework within the literature of RL that can be used to formalize various categories of problems, such as meta-learning, hierarchical task decomposition, and reinforcement learning from human feedback (RL-HF).
arXiv:2606. 02194v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Distilling expert demonstration data into large generative models using behavioral cloning is a scalable approach to learning capable policies for robotic control, particularly for dexterous manipulation.
arXiv:2603. 14867v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Many strategic decision-making problems, such as environment design for warehouse robots, can be naturally formulated as bi-level reinforcement learning (RL), where a leader agent optimizes its objective while a follower solves a Markov decision process (MDP) conditioned on the leader's decisions.
arXiv:2605. 14599v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We establish novel structural and statistical results for entropy-regularized min-max inverse reinforcement learning (Min-Max-IRL) in finite-horizon MDPs with Borel state and action spaces.
arXiv:2605. 14982v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We address the discounted reward setting in reinforcement learning (RL).
arXiv:2606. 05888v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retry-based objectives such as pass@K and max@K optimize the best return obtained from multiple sampled trajectories, and recent work has shown that they can promote exploration without explicit exploration bonuses.
arXiv:2607. 08647v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As autonomous agents are increasingly deployed across diverse operational contexts, aligning their behavior with human intent demands reward functions that remain robust to such changes rather than overfitting to any single environment.
arXiv:2605. 18591v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Natural policy gradients improve optimization by accounting for the geometry of distribution space, but their practical use is limited by the cost of estimating and inverting the Fisher matrix.
arXiv:2603. 09344v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Offline reinforcement learning (RL) enables data-efficient and safe policy learning without online exploration, but its performance often degrades under distribution shift.
arXiv:2607. 21302v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Behavior prior reinforcement learning (BPRL) has emerged as a promising paradigm to improve sample efficiency in online reinforcement learning (RL) by leveraging policy priors derived from offline demonstrations.
arXiv:2606. 06967v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative policies provide expressive and multimodal action distributions, making them attractive for reinforcement learning (RL) in complex continuous-control tasks.
