arXiv:2605. 00155v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) is a central post-training tool for aligning large language models, but its training reward is only a learned proxy for true human utility.

arXiv:2606. 18531v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Offline reinforcement learning is typically analyzed under process-level reward supervision, yet many sequential decision datasets record only trajectory-level outcomes.

arXiv:2602. 20403v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study distributionally robust online learning, where a risk-averse learner updates decisions sequentially to guard against worst-case distributions drawn from a Wasserstein ambiguity set centered at past observations.

arXiv:2506. 07040v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study model-free methods for distributionally robust infinite-horizon average-reward Markov decision processes (MDPs).

arXiv:2504. 10796v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Distributionally robust optimization (DRO) is widely used for decision-making under uncertainty, but its adversarial focus on worst-case loss can lead to overly conservative policies.

arXiv:2607. 08444v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this paper, we study quantile-based distributional reinforcement learning from the perspective of statistical efficiency.
