The study proposes a novel approach for manipulating the behavior of reinforcement learning agents without requiring white-box access or environment-specific heuristics. The method, formulated as a bi-level optimization problem, can be solved using an existing imitation learning algorithm in both black-box and no-box settings. Empirical evaluations on several benchmarks demonstrate superior attack performance compared to baselines.

The study looks at ways to control the behavior of machines that learn from experience, by adding fake information to what they see. This is useful for testing how well these machines can be controlled or fooled. The researchers developed a new method that doesn’t need special knowledge about the situation where it’s being used. They tested their idea on different scenarios and found that it works better than other approaches.
