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.
