Bridging Successor Measure and Online Policy Learning with Flow Matching-Based Representations

ICLR 2026poster

The Successor Measure (SM), a powerful method in reinforcement learning (RL), describes discounted future state distributions under a policy, and it has recently been studied using generative modeling techniques. Although SM is a powerful predictive object, it lacks compact representations tailored…

Reinforcing Compositional Retrieval: Retrieving Step-by-Step for Composing Informative Contexts

ACL 2025finding

Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities across numerous tasks, yet they often rely on external context to handle complex tasks. While retrieval-augmented frameworks traditionally focus on selecting top-ranked documents in a single pass, many real-world scenarios demand…

Improving the Generalization of Unseen Crowd Behaviors for Reinforcement Learning based Local Motion Planners

ICRA 2024poster

Deploying a safe mobile robot policy in scenarios with human pedestrians is challenging due to their unpredictable movements. Current Reinforcement Learningbased motion planners rely on a single policy to simulate pedestrian movements and could suffer from the over-fitting issue. Alternatively, fram…

Learning Generalizable Representations for Reinforcement Learning via Adaptive Meta-learner of Behavioral Similarities

ICLR 2022poster

How to learn an effective reinforcement learning-based model for control tasks from high-level visual observations is a practical and challenging problem. A key to solving this problem is to learn low-dimensional state representations from observations, from which an effective policy can be learned.…

Learning Representations via a Robust Behavioral Metric for Deep Reinforcement Learning

NeurIPS 2022accept

Learning an informative representation with behavioral metrics is able to accelerate the deep reinforcement learning process. There are two key research issues on behavioral metric-based representation learning: 1) how to relax the computation of a specific behavioral metric, which is difficult or e…

Sequential Generative Exploration Model for Partially Observable Reinforcement Learning

AAAI 2021technical

Many challenging partially observable reinforcement learning problems have sparse rewards and most existing model-free algorithms struggle with such reward sparsity. In this paper, we propose a novel reward shaping approach to infer the intrinsic rewards for the agent from a sequential generative mo…

Storage Efficient and Dynamic Flexible Runtime Channel Pruning via Deep Reinforcement Learning

NeurIPS 2020poster

In this paper, we propose a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) based framework to efficiently perform runtime channel pruning on convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Our DRL-based framework aims to learn a pruning strategy to determine how many and which channels to be pruned in each convolutional l…
