Skill-aware Mutual Information Optimisation for Zero-shot Generalisation in Reinforcement Learning

NeurIPS 2024poster

Meta-Reinforcement Learning (Meta-RL) agents can struggle to operate across tasks with varying environmental features that require different optimal skills (i.e., different modes of behaviour). Using context encoders based on contrastive learning to enhance the generalisability of Meta-RL agents is…

Conditional Mutual Information for Disentangled Representations in Reinforcement Learning

NeurIPS 2023spotlight

Reinforcement Learning (RL) environments can produce training data with spurious correlations between features due to the amount of training data or its limited feature coverage. This can lead to RL agents encoding these misleading correlations in their latent representation, preventing the agent fr…

Temporal Disentanglement of Representations for Improved Generalisation in Reinforcement Learning

ICLR 2023poster

Reinforcement Learning (RL) agents are often unable to generalise well to environment variations in the state space that were not observed during training. This issue is especially problematic for image-based RL, where a change in just one variable, such as the background colour, can change many pix…
