  • Patent number: 12210965
    Abstract: In some examples, a dynamic system, including a vehicle, may be represented using a graph-based representation. One or more nodes in the graph-based representation may correspond to one or more agents in the dynamic system, and one or more edges between the nodes in the graph-based representation may correspond to one or more interactions between the agents in the dynamic system. The interactions may be defined based on human domain knowledge of the dynamic system. The dynamic system may be modeled using a respective machine learning model that includes a reward decoder that operates on the graph-based representation and evaluates one or more reward functions for the dynamic system. The one or more reward functions may be defined based on the human domain knowledge of the dynamic system. Autonomous operation of the vehicle may be controlled based on the modeling of the dynamic system.

  • Publication number: 20240037445
    Abstract: Systems and methods for pessimistic offline reinforcement learning are described herein. In one example, a method for performing offline reinforcement learning determines when sampled states are out of distribution, assigns high probability weights to the sampled states that are out of distribution, generates a fitted Q-function by solving an optimization problem with a minimization term and a maximization term, estimates a Q-value using the fitted Q-function by estimating the overall expected reward assuming the agent is in the present state and performs a present action, and updates the policy according to an existing reinforcement learning algorithm. The minimization term penalizes an overall expected reward when a present state is out of distribution. The maximization term cancels the minimization term when the present state is an in-distribution state.
