This paper proposes a new approach to offline reinforcement learning (RL) called In-context Decision Transformer (IDT). IDT is designed to handle online tasks efficiently by reconstructing sequences of high-level decisions rather than low-level actions. This allows it to avoid excessively long sequences and solve online tasks more quickly. The authors demonstrate the effectiveness of IDT in long-horizon tasks, achieving state-of-the-art results compared to current in-context RL methods.

This paper is about a new way for computers to learn by making decisions without needing a lot of computing power. It’s called In-context Decision Transformer (IDT). IDT helps computers make better choices by thinking about what they’re going to do instead of just doing things one step at a time. This makes it faster and more efficient than other ways computers can learn. The authors tested IDT and found that it worked really well on big tasks, making it a promising new approach in the field of artificial intelligence.
