[reading] Reinforcement and Imitation Learning via Interactive No-Regret Learning

2 minute read

Published:

The paper presents new methods for imitation and reinforcement learning that leverage cost-to-go information within an interactive no-regret learning framework. Key contributions include the AGGREVATE algorithm for imitation learning and a related algorithm for reinforcement learning, both offering strong theoretical guarantees.

CRLLK: Constrained Reinforcement Learning for Lane Keeping in Autonomous Driving

Published in AAMAS 2025, Detroit, Michigan, USA, 2025

We modeled the problem of lane-keeping as a constrained optimization problem and presented a constrained RL based solution to the problem. The weight coefficients are adaptively learned without scenario-specific tuning and grid search. Empirically, we observe that our approach surpasses traditional RL-based approaches.
