arXiv:2608. 02993v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: (Flat) Reinforcement Learning (RL) agents face significant challenges in environments with sparse rewards that require long-horizon reasoning.
The paper introduces Local Updates, Global Learning (LUGL), a framework that separates data collection from model training, allowing non‑incremental learners such as gradient‑boosted trees (LightGBM) to be used in reinforcement learning for games. LUGL alternates between a local phase—where self‑play generates tabular updates—and a global phase—where these updates train a function approximator before resetting the table. Experiments on both perfect‑information and imperfect‑information games show that LightGBM agents perform competitively or better than neural‑network baselines like DQN and DeepCFR.
arXiv:2607. 21856v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern reasoning models depend on reasoning data, today sourced from human annotations or distilled from stronger LLMs.
The paper introduces LUGL (Local Updates, Global Learning), a framework that separates data collection from model fitting, allowing non‑incremental learners such as gradient‑boosted trees (LightGBM) to be used in reinforcement learning for games. LUGL alternates between a local update phase—where agents play self‑play games and store tabular updates—and a global learning phase—where a function approximator is trained on the accumulated table before it is reset. Experiments on both perfect‑information and imperfect‑information games show that LightGBM‑based agents perform competitively or better than neural‑network baselines like DQN and DeepCFR.
