Adapting to the “Open World”: The Utility of Hybrid Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning and Symbolic Planning

Open-world robotic tasks such as autonomous driving pose significant challenges to robot control due to unknown and unpredictable events that disrupt task performance. Neural network-based reinforcement learning (RL) techniques (like DQN, PPO, SAC, etc.) struggle to adapt in large domains and suffer…
