In reinforcement learning (RL), critics traditionally learn absolute state values, estimating how good a particular situation is in isolation. Adding any constant to $V(s)$ leaves action preferences unchanged. Thus only value differences are relevant for decision making. Motivated by this fact, we a…
What are the essential components of world models? How far do we get with world models that are not employing RNNs, transformers, discrete representations, and image reconstructions? This paper introduces SGF, a Simple, Good, and Fast world model that uses self-supervised representation learning, ca…
Deep neural networks have been successful in many reinforcement learning settings. However, compared to human learners they are overly data hungry. To build a sample-efficient world model, we apply a transformer to real-world episodes in an autoregressive manner: not only the compact latent states a…
