Hadamard Representation boosts deep reinforcement learning performance

Researchers have introduced a new architectural component called the Hadamard Representation (HR) to address performance degradation in deep reinforcement learning agents. HR replaces a standard hidden layer with an element-wise product of two independently parameterized layers. This method aims to prevent neurons from becoming dormant and to increase effective rank, thereby capturing richer feature interactions. Evaluations across multiple algorithms and domains demonstrated consistent performance improvements over baseline models without requiring hyperparameter tuning. AI

    Hadamard Representation: Scaffolding Performance Across Model-free RL

    arXiv:2406.09079v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Deep reinforcement learning agents progressively lose representational capacity during training: neurons become dormant, removing active capacity from the network, and effective rank collapses, leaving surviving neurons redundan…
