arXiv:2605. 08253v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Distributional reinforcement learning (DRL) models the full return distribution, but existing finite-support or quantile-based methods rely on projections, while recent flow-based approaches can suffer from \emph{boundary mismatch} at the flow source or from \emph{high-variance} bootstrapping when current and successor noises are independent.
arXiv:2510. 07650v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While most reinforcement learning methods today flatten the distribution of future returns to a single scalar value, distributional RL methods exploit the return distribution to provide stronger learning signals and to enable applications in exploration and safe RL.
arXiv:2606. 08602v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present an online reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm for fine-tuning flow-matching policies in continuous-control problems.
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:2606. 30376v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Aligning generative flow models on continuous spaces via online reinforcement learning is constrained by intractable trajectory likelihoods.
arXiv:2606. 16515v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman theory implies that the optimal goal-conditioned action depends on the goal only through the gradient of the goal-reaching distance at the current state, yet standard online GCRL still conditions the actor on the raw goal -- a signal that is geometrically uninformative when the goal is far from the data distribution.
arXiv:2509. 10303v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Online reinforcement learning (RL) approaches have demonstrated strong performance on Job Shop Scheduling (JSP) and Flexible JSP (FJSP) problems by learning scheduling policies through direct interaction with simulated environments.
arXiv:2601. 08136v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion and flow policies are gaining prominence in online reinforcement learning (RL) due to their expressive power, yet training them efficiently remains a critical challenge.
arXiv:2608. 03069v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep Q-Networks (DQNs) learn value functions through bootstrapped temporal-difference updates, where future returns are approximated using a greedy maximization over next-state action values.
arXiv:2607. 17897v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Distributional soft policy iteration (DSPI) provides an important framework for combining distributional reinforcement learning (DRL) with maximum-entropy control, in which the policy evaluation step is governed by a distributional soft Bellman operator acting on entropy-regularised returns.
arXiv:2608. 02332v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In offline reinforcement learning (RL), the distribution shift between behavioral data and the learned policy can lead to erroneous \emph{Q}-value estimation, thereby misguiding the direction of policy optimization.
arXiv:2606. 17551v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Iterative generative modeling techniques, such as flow matching, provide powerful tools to model complex behaviors for effective offline reinforcement learning (RL).
arXiv:2510. 01721v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Distributionally robust reinforcement learning (DRRL) seeks policies that perform well when the deployment transition model differs from the nominal model generating the data.
