The proposed Model-Enhanced Adversarial Inverse Reinforcement Learning (AIRL) framework tackles the limitations of AIRL in stochastic environments by incorporating dynamics information into reward shaping. This ensures theoretical guarantees for optimal policy performance and outperforms existing baselines in sample efficiency. The novel approach integrates transition model estimation directly into reward shaping, providing a comprehensive analysis of reward error bounds and performance difference bounds.

In this paper, researchers aim to improve Adversarial Inverse Reinforcement Learning (AIRL) in unpredictable environments where traditional methods don’t work well. They create a new way to combine the environment’s rules with rewards, making sure the results are reliable and efficient. The new method shows better performance in chaotic situations and is almost as good in predictable ones.
