Active Reinforcement Learning: Observing Rewards at a Cost

2020-11-13 · David Krueger, Jan Leike, Owain Evans, John Salvatier

Active reinforcement learning (ARL) is a variant on reinforcement learning where the agent does not observe the reward unless it chooses to pay a query cost c > 0. The central question of ARL is how to quantify the long-term value of reward information. Even in multi-armed bandits, computing the value of this information is intractable and we have to rely on heuristics. We propose and evaluate several heuristic approaches for ARL in multi-armed bandits and (tabular) Markov decision processes, and discuss and illustrate some challenging aspects of the ARL problem.

Evolution of Fear and Social Rewards in Prey-Predator Relationship

2025-07-14 · Yuji Kanagawa, Kenji Doya arxiv

Fear is a critical brain function that enables us to learn to avoid danger via reinforcement learning (RL). While many researchers have argued that fear has evolved to escape predators, how varying predatory pressures ha…

The Value of Reward Lookahead in Reinforcement Learning

2024-03-18 · Nadav Merlis, Dorian Baudry, Vianney Perchet

In reinforcement learning (RL), agents sequentially interact with changing environments while aiming to maximize the obtained rewards. Usually, rewards are observed only after acting, and so the goal is to maximize the e…
