arXiv:2502.17666v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Existing offline in-context reinforcement learning (ICRL) methods have predominantly relied on supervised training objectives, which are known to have limitations in offline RL settings. In this study, we explore the integration of RL objectives within an offline ICRL framework. Through experiments on more than 150 GridWorld and MuJoCo environment-derived datasets, we demonstrate that optimizing RL objectives directly improves performance by approximately 30% on average compared to widely adopted Algorithm Distillation (AD), across various da
The continuous research in reinforcement learning and the push for more efficient and robust AI models are driving advancements in offline ICRL.
This development indicates a significant improvement in the effectiveness of offline AI training methods, potentially accelerating the deployment of more capable AI systems.
Offline in-context reinforcement learning models can now achieve substantially better performance by incorporating direct RL objectives, surpassing previous supervised learning approaches.
