Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for processing inputs using an image processing neural network system that includes a spatial transformer module. One of the methods includes receiving an input feature map derived from the one or more input images, and applying a spatial transformation to the input feature map to generate a transformed feature map, comprising: processing the input feature map to generate spatial transformation parameters for the spatial transformation, and sampling from the input feature map in accordance with the spatial transformation parameters to generate the transformed feature map.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for training a policy neural network having a plurality of policy parameters and used to select actions to be performed by an agent to control the agent to perform a particular task while interacting with one or more other agents in an environment. In one aspect, the method includes: maintaining data specifying a pool of candidate action selection policies; maintaining data specifying respective matchmaking policy; and training the policy neural network using a reinforcement learning technique to update the policy parameters. The policy parameters define policies to be used in controlling the agent to perform the particular task.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for reinforcement learning. One of the methods includes selecting an action to be performed by the agent using both a slow updating recurrent neural network and a fast updating recurrent neural network that receives a fast updating input that includes the hidden state of the slow updating recurrent neural network.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for training a reinforcement learning system. The method includes: training an action selection policy neural network, and during the training of the action selection neural network, training one or more auxiliary control neural networks and a reward prediction neural network. Each of the auxiliary control neural networks is configured to receive a respective intermediate output generated by the action selection policy neural network and generate a policy output for a corresponding auxiliary control task. The reward prediction neural network is configured to receive one or more intermediate outputs generated by the action selection policy neural network and generate a corresponding predicted reward.
