Researchers have introduced Support-Preserving Action Rectification (SPAR), a novel framework designed to address the inherent conflict in offline policy improvement. SPAR reframes global learning as a local residual rectification, anchored to a frozen behavior cloning policy. This approach facilitates fine-grained fitting and local policy improvement within the residual space, effectively contracting the search space. The framework also incorporates Latent Self-Imitation to resolve fitting-improvement gradient conflicts, theoretically eliminating manifold-normal drift and demonstrating state-of-the-art performance on D4RL experiments.
