DeepMind Found New Approach To Create Faster Reinforcement Learning Models

Recently, researchers from DeepMind and McGill University proposed new approaches to speed up the solution of complex reinforcement learning problems. They mainly introduced a divide and conquer approach to reinforcement learning (RL), which is combined with deep learning to scale up the potentials of the agents.  For a few years now, reinforcement learning has been…

DeepMind Introduces TayPO, A Policy Optimisation Framework For RL Algorithm

Recently, DeepMind collaborated with Columbia University to propose Taylor expansion Policy Optimisation (TayPO), which is a policy optimisation formalism that generalises methods like trust region policy optimisation (TRPO) and improves the performance of several state-of-the-art distributed algorithms. Policy optimisation is one of the main approaches for deriving reinforcement learning algorithms. It has several successful applications…
