New GP-PSRL Algorithm Achieves Sublinear Regret Bounds for Continuous Control

Researchers have developed a new theoretical framework for Posterior Sampling Reinforcement Learning (PSRL) using Gaussian Processes, specifically addressing continuous control problems in unbounded state spaces. The proposed GP-PSRL algorithm achieves a Bayesian regret bound of $\widetilde{\mathcal{O}}(H\sqrt{\gamma_TT})$, resolving limitations in prior theoretical work. This advancement provides a stronger theoretical foundation for analyzing PSRL in complex environments. AI

    Posterior Sampling Reinforcement Learning with Gaussian Processes for Continuous Control: Sublinear Regret Bounds for Unbounded State Spaces

    arXiv:2603.08287v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We analyze the Bayesian regret of the Gaussian process posterior sampling reinforcement learning (GP-PSRL) algorithm. Posterior sampling is a heuristic for decision-making under uncertainty that has been used to develop successf…
