Accelerated Policy Gradient: On the Convergence Rates of the Nesterov Momentum for Reinforcement Learning

ICML 2024poster

Various acceleration approaches for Policy Gradient (PG) have been analyzed within the realm of Reinforcement Learning (RL). However, the theoretical understanding of the widely used momentum-based acceleration method on PG remains largely open. In response to this gap, we adapt the celebrated Neste…

Coordinate Ascent for Off-Policy RL with Global Convergence Guarantees

AISTATS 2023poster

We revisit the domain of off-policy policy optimization in RL from the perspective of coordinate ascent. One commonly-used approach is to leverage the off-policy policy gradient to optimize a surrogate objective – the total discounted in expectation return of the target policy with respect to the st…

Modeling Human Visual Motion Processing with Trainable Motion Energy Sensing and a Self-attention Network

NeurIPS 2023poster

Visual motion processing is essential for humans to perceive and interact with dynamic environments. Despite extensive research in cognitive neuroscience, image-computable models that can extract informative motion flow from natural scenes in a manner consistent with human visual processing have yet…
