Learning Hierarchical Skill Policies with Offline Quality-Diversity Reinforcement Learning
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.19684v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent studies investigate how to leverage pre-collected datasets to improve the policy performance and sample efficiency of RL. One promising approach to achieve this goal is to employ a two-stage strategy: In the first stage, diverse skills are extracted as a low-level policy from a given dataset, and a high-level policy is trained to solve a specific task in the second stage. Typically, extraction of the low-level policy is performed based on unsupervised learning such as trajectory VAE. However, a limitation of this approach is that the quali
