Large transformer models, trained on diverse datasets, have demonstrated impressive few-shot performance on previously unseen tasks without requiring parameter updates. This capability has also been explored in Reinforcement Learning (RL), where agents interact with the environment to retrieve conte
The success of nnU-Net proves the significance of the rationality of workflow architecture and configuration settings in improving segmentation accuracy. However, since that, most efforts to improve U-Net have continued to address CNN inner limitations caused by architecture. These methods encounter…
Learning safe reinforcement learning (RL) policies from offline multi-task datasets without direct environmental interaction is crucial for efficient and reliable deployment of RL agents. Benefiting from their scalability and strong in-context learning capabilities, recent approaches attempt to util…
Learning from offline data without interacting with the environment is a promising way to fully leverage the intelligent decision-making capabilities of multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL). Previous approaches have primarily focused on developing learning techniques, such as conservative metho…
Multimodal Aspect-Category-Sentiment Triple Extraction (MACSTE) is a highly complex subtask within Multimodal Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (MABSA), requiring simultaneous attribute extraction and sentiment polarity prediction from image-text pairs. While existing research often emphasizes modalit…
We develop a semi-amortized, policy-based, approach to Bayesian experimental design (BED) called Stepwise Deep Adaptive Design (Step-DAD). Like existing, fully amortized, policy-based BED approaches, Step-DAD trains a design policy upfront before the experiment. However, rather than keeping this pol…
Multi-objective reinforcement learning (MORL) approaches address real-world problems with multiple objectives by learning policies maximizing returns weighted by different user preferences. Typical methods assume the objectives remain unchanged throughout the agent's lifetime. However, in some real-…
The shift in dynamics results in significant performance degradation of policies trained in the source domain when deployed in a different target domain, posing a challenge for the practical application of reinforcement learning (RL) in real-world scenarios. Domain transfer methods aim to bridge thi…
Quality-Diversity (QD) algorithms have emerged as a powerful optimization paradigm with the aim of generating a set of high-quality and diverse solutions. To achieve such a challenging goal, QD algorithms require maintaining a large archive and a large population in each iteration, which brings two…
Cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL), where agents coordinates with teammate(s) for a shared goal, may sustain non-stationary caused by the policy change of teammates. Prior works mainly concentrate on the policy change cross episodes, ignoring the fact that teammates may suffer f…
Cooperative Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning (CMARL) has shown to be promising for many real-world applications. Previous works mainly focus on improving coordination ability via solving MARL-specific challenges (e.g., non-stationarity, credit assignment, scalability), but ignore the policy pertur…
Utilizing messages from teammates can improve coordination in cooperative Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL). To obtain meaningful information for decision-making, previous works typically combine raw messages generated by teammates with local information as inputs for policy. However, neglec…
Value-based multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) methods hold the promise of promoting coordination in cooperative settings. Popular MARL methods mainly focus on the scalability or the representational capacity of value functions. Such a learning paradigm can reduce agents' uncertainties and pr…
