This paper presents a novel approach to hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL) by decomposing complex reaching tasks into simpler subgoal-conditioned tasks. The authors propose a hippocampus-striatum-like dual-controller hypothesis, inspired by brain mechanisms of organisms, which improves sample efficiency and resolves model dependency issues. They integrate this framework with the state-of-the-art ACLG framework to create a new goal-conditioned HRL approach called HG2P+ACLG. This method outperforms existing algorithms on various long-horizon navigation tasks and robotic manipulation tasks.

This paper is about a new way of learning in artificial intelligence. It’s like a puzzle, where you break down big problems into smaller ones to solve them more easily. The authors looked at how the brain solves puzzles and used that idea to make their method better. They also found ways to make it work faster and better. This new approach does really well on tests with robots and can be useful in many areas.
