arXiv:2606.06967v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative policies provide expressive and multimodal action distributions, making them attractive for reinforcement learning (RL) in complex continuous-control tasks. Among them, flow-based policies are especially appealing because they generate actions through deterministic transport maps. However, applying such generative policies to likelihood-based on-policy learning remains limited by the difficulty of evaluating the probability of executed actions. Existing flow RL methods either replace the true action-density ratio with approximate surro
The continuous integration of generative models into reinforcement learning necessitates more robust methods for policy optimization, leading to innovations like GenPO++.
Improving policies for reinforcement learning in complex continuous-control tasks could accelerate the development of advanced AI agents capable of nuanced, real-world interactions.
