Evolving Reinforcement Learning Algorithms

2021 · arXiv (Cornell University)

We propose a method for meta-learning reinforcement learning algorithms by searching over the space of computational graphs which compute the loss function for a value-based model-free RL agent to optimize. The learned algorithms are domain-agnostic …

Information is Power: Intrinsic Control via Information Capture

2021 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Humans and animals explore their environment and acquire useful skills even in the absence of clear goals, exhibiting intrinsic motivation. The study of intrinsic motivation in artificial agents is concerned with the following question: what …
