A hybrid reinforcement learning framework that combines offline data with online exploration is gaining attention. This paper investigates whether such a hybrid approach can improve upon existing lower bounds in purely offline and purely online settings, without relying on a specific assumption called concentrability. The question has been partially answered for the tabular case, but remains open for other cases.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
A team of researchers wants to know if they can use a combination of old data and new experiments to make better decisions. They’re trying to figure out if this approach can be even better than using just one or the other method. So far, some experts have shown that it works in certain situations, but there’s still more to learn.
