A hierarchical approach is proposed for efficient exploration in reinforcement learning when faced with complex problems. By providing an object-centric mapping of items and their attributes, agents can learn more effectively. The authors suggest a fully model-based algorithm that learns a world model, plans to explore efficiently using a count-based intrinsic reward, and can subsequently plan to reach discovered states.

In this research paper, scientists find a new way for machines learning by themselves (reinforcement learning) to solve tricky problems. They give the machine a list of objects and their features, which helps it learn better. The team suggests a new method that lets the machine learn about its world, plan how to explore efficiently, and then figure out how to reach interesting places.
