O prezentaci

While policy-based reinforcement learning (RL) achieves tremendous successes in practice, it is significantly less understood in theory, especially compared with value-based RL. In particular, it remains elusive how to design a provably efficient policy optimization algorithm that incorporates exploration. To bridge such a gap, this paper proposes an Optimistic variant of the Proximal Policy Optimization algorithm (OPPO), which follows an "optimistic version" of the policy gradient direction. This paper proves that, in the problem of episodic Markov decision process with linear function approximation, unknown transition, and adversarial reward with full-information feedback, OPPO achieves Õ(√(d^3 H^3 T)) regret. Here d is the feature dimension, H is the episode horizon, and T is the total number of steps. To the best of our knowledge, OPPO is the first provably efficient policy optimization algorithm that explores.
