Generalization in RL


Project Description

Overfitting occurs in Reinforcement Learning when agents memorize action sequences instead of learning an actual skill or mistakenly correlate rewards with certain spurious features from the observations generated by the Markov Decision Process (MDP).

Keywords

Reinforcement Learning, Generalization, Decoupled Networks

Methods

a) Attention-based Partial Decoupling of Policy and Value (APDAC)

In this project, we build on the works of IDAAC but partially separate the policy and the value function for better generalization

b) Hyperbolic Discounting in Generalization

In this project, we explore the benefits of hyperbolic discounting in generalization.

Data Sets

TBD

Link to any data sets for the project here. For any federally-sponsored research project (especially NSF and NIH-sponsored projects) of the KDD Lab, there must be an open access data repository. These may be subdirectories of a Bitbucket repository, but link to them separately here anyway. For all other projects, link to sites where data produced from the project are shared - e.g., a publisher server, Kaggle landing page, NIST documentation page, etc. Link to any data sharing agreements here.

Trello Board

TBD Every KDD Lab project must have a Trello Team and Trello Board, which must be private. Link to the Trello Board for the project here.

Source Code

TBD Every KDD Lab project must have a Bitbucket repository, which may be public or private. Link to the repository or repositories for the project here.

See the Machine Learning and Probabilistic Reasoning subpages of the original KDD wiki (v1, 2001 - 2006).

KDD Lab Publications

TBD

Use APA citation format and make sure citations are synchronized with the pages listing conference papers, journal articles, book chapters, posters, and student publications.
