Policy-based Reinforcement Learning for Generalisation in Interactive Text-based Environments (2023.eacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Text-based environments allow RL agents to learn to converse and perform interactive tasks through natural language. |
| Approach: | They propose to switch from a value-based update method to a policy-based one within text-based environments and evaluate it on Coin Collector and Question Answering with interactive text (QAit). |
| Outcome: | The proposed policy-based agent is more generalised than value-based methods in two text-based environments designed to test zero-shot performance. |
