New Q-Learning Algorithms Offer Fine-Grained Regret Bounds

Researchers have developed new algorithms for Q-learning that provide more precise regret bounds in episodic tabular Markov Decision Processes. These advancements address limitations in existing methods by offering fine-grained, gap-dependent regret guarantees. The study introduces a novel analytical framework and proposes new algorithms, ULCB-Hoeffding and a refined AMB, which demonstrate improved performance and theoretical rigor. AI

    Q-Learning with Fine-Grained Gap-Dependent Regret

    arXiv:2510.06647v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study fine-grained gap-dependent regret bounds for model-free reinforcement learning in episodic tabular Markov Decision Processes. Existing model-free algorithms achieve minimax worst-case regret, but their gap-depende…
