Combining Explicit Priors and Set Attention Driven Implicit Priors for Demonstration-Guided Reinforcement Learning
摘要
Effectively leveraging action priors from diverse tasks in reinforcement learning remains a significant challenge, particularly in task-agnostic datasets where capturing task relevance is crucial. This work addresses these challenges by introducing a modified Set Transformer, cosine similarity, and an existing importance network to derive suggested weights for each implicit action prior based on a normalizing flow architecture. These suggestions are then dynamically combined using Multi-Head Attention enhanced by Gated Recurrent Units (GRUs) together with residual networks, generating the final weights for each normalizing flow. This approach not only enhances task relevance and robustness against input order sensitivity but also improves few-shot adaptation by ensuring the selected priors are both sparse and diverse through weight regularizations. Our experiments across four challenging environments show the superiority of this approach, with a 37.96% improvement in total performance, reducing the dependency on large-scale task-agnostic datasets, and enhancing resilience to sequence variations and noise.
