Fall 2024
The sensitivity of reinforcement learning algorithm performance to hyperparameter choices poses a significant hurdle to the deployment of these algorithms in the real-world, where sampling can be limited by speed, safety, or other system constraints. To mitigate this, one approach is to learn a...

Fall 2022
We have witnessed the rising popularity of real-world applications of reinforcement learning (RL). However, most successful real-world applications of RL rely on high-fidelity simulators that enable rapid iteration of prototypes, hyperparameter selection and policy training. On the other hand, RL...
