A new search-control strategy improves Dyna's efficiency.

problem Improving sample efficiency in model-based reinforcement learning.
method Proposes a novel search-control strategy by sampling high frequency regions of the value function.
result Empirically shows that high frequency regions require more samples to approximate, suggesting a better search-control strategy.

Dyna is an architecture for model-based reinforcement learning (RL), where simulated experience from a model is used to update policies or value functions. A key component of Dyna is search-control, the mechanism to generate the state and action from which the agent queries the model, which remains largely unexplored. …

Efficiently reduces computational burden of rollout acquisition functions in Bayesian optimization.

problem Expensive computation of rollout acquisition functions in Bayesian optimization.
method Combines quasi-Monte Carlo, common random numbers, and control variates to reduce computational burden. Formulates a policy-search approach to eliminate the need to optimize the rollout acquisition function.
result Significant reduction in computational burden of rollout acquisition functions.
