Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for data-efficient reinforcement learning. One of the systems is a system for training an actor neural network used to select actions to be performed by an agent that interacts with an environment by receiving observations characterizing states of the environment and, in response to each observation, performing an action selected from a continuous space of possible actions, wherein the actor neural network maps observations to next actions in accordance with values of parameters of the actor neural network, and wherein the system comprises: a plurality of workers, wherein each worker is configured to operate independently of each other worker, wherein each worker is associated with a respective agent replica that interacts with a respective replica of the environment during the training of the actor neural network.

Abstract: An off-policy reinforcement learning actor-critic neural network system configured to select actions from a continuous action space to be performed by an agent interacting with an environment to perform a task. An observation defines environment state data and reward data. The system has an actor neural network which learns a policy function mapping the state data to action data. A critic neural network learns an action-value (Q) function. A replay buffer stores tuples of the state data, the action data, the reward data and new state data. The replay buffer also includes demonstration transition data comprising a set of the tuples from a demonstration of the task within the environment. The neural network system is configured to train the actor neural network and the critic neural network off-policy using stored tuples from the replay buffer comprising tuples both from operation of the system and from the demonstration transition data.

Abstract: A system includes a neural network system implemented by one or more computers. The neural network system is configured to receive an observation characterizing a current state of a real-world environment being interacted with by a robotic agent to perform a robotic task and to process the observation to generate a policy output that defines an action to be performed by the robotic agent in response to the observation. The neural network system includes: (i) a sequence of deep neural networks (DNNs), in which the sequence of DNNs includes a simulation-trained DNN that has been trained on interactions of a simulated version of the robotic agent with a simulated version of the real-world environment to perform a simulated version of the robotic task, and (ii) a first robot-trained DNN that is configured to receive the observation and to process the observation to generate the policy output.
