The paper introduces Q-learning Penalized Transformer (QPT), a training–inference consistent framework for safe offline reinforcement learning. QPT trains a Transformer policy that generates actions conditioned on trajectory context and target return/cost while incorporating a Q-shaped penalty to balance safety, reward maximization, and behavior regularization. The method consistently outperforms strong baselines on 38 DSRL benchmark tasks and adapts robustly to varying constraint thresholds.

The paper introduces Counterfactual KKT (CF‑KKT), a framework that learns unknown constraints from locally optimal demonstrations without requiring known dynamics or risky exploration. CF‑KKT uses a learned differentiable dynamics model to apply KKT‑inspired optimality conditions and generates counterfactual behaviors that reveal infeasible data, enabling safer and more data‑efficient constraint recovery. Experiments on high‑dimensional robotic control tasks show that neural constraint representations learned with CF‑KKT achieve better safety and data efficiency than state‑of‑the‑art offline inverse constrained reinforcement learning baselines.
