In-context Reinforcement Learning with Algorithm Distillation

ICLR 2023top-5%

We propose Algorithm Distillation (AD), a method for distilling reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms into neural networks by modeling their training histories with a causal sequence model. Algorithm Distillation treats learning to reinforcement learn as an across-episode sequential prediction prob…

Large Language Models can Implement Policy Iteration

NeurIPS 2023poster

In this work, we demonstrate a method for implementing policy iteration using a large language model. While the application of foundation models to RL has received considerable attention, most approaches rely on either (1) the curation of expert demonstrations (either through manual design or task-s…

Reinforcement Learning of Implicit and Explicit Control Flow Instructions

ICML 2021spotlight

Learning to flexibly follow task instructions in dynamic environments poses interesting challenges for reinforcement learning agents. We focus here on the problem of learning control flow that deviates from a strict step-by-step execution of instructions{—}that is, control flow that may skip forward…
