Reinforcement Learning Across Timescales

This project addresses a fundamental problem faced by many reinforcement learning agents. Commonly used reinforcement learning agents can be seen to have deteriorating performances at increasing frequencies, as they are unable to correctly learn the ordering of expected returns for actions that are applied. We call this the disappearing...

Deep Reinforcement Learning for Bipedal Robots

Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a general purpose framework for designing controllers for non-linear systems. It tries to learn a controller (policy) by trial and error. This makes it highly suitable for systems which are difficult to control using conventional control methodologies, such as walking robots. Traditionally, RL has only been...
