This research abstract focuses on deep reinforcement learning (DRL) and its ability to generalize in complex environments. DRL has been widely adopted in various fields due to its success in solving high-dimensional problems. However, the field is still grappling with the limitations of DRL’s generalization capabilities, particularly overfitting. The authors propose a comprehensive analysis of DRL’s overfitting issues and offer a range of solutions to improve policy robustness. These approaches include exploration strategies, adversarial analysis, regularization techniques, and robustness methods.

In simple terms, this study explores the limitations of using deep learning in decision-making processes. It identifies the main challenges faced by these systems when they are deployed in real-world environments with unknown dynamics. The authors provide a detailed overview of various solutions to overcome these challenges and improve the performance of these systems. This research aims to help developers create more robust and adaptable AI models that can generalize well beyond their training data.
