• Abstract summary: RLDS is an ecosystem for recording, replaying, manipulating, annotating and sharing data in the context of Sequential Decision Making (SDM) RLDS enables not only of existing research and easy generation of new datasets, but also accelerates novel research. The RLDS ecosystem makes it easy to share datasets without any loss of information and to be agnostic to the underlying original format.

• Abstract: We introduce RLDS (Reinforcement Learning Datasets), an ecosystem for recording, replaying, manipulating, annotating and sharing data in the context of Sequential Decision Making (SDM) including Reinforcement Learning (RL), Learning from Demonstrations, Offline RL or Imitation Learning. RLDS enables not only reproducibility of existing research and easy generation of new datasets, but also accelerates novel research. By providing a standard and lossless format of datasets it enables to quickly test new algorithms on a wider range of tasks. The RLDS ecosystem makes it easy to share datasets without any loss of information and to be agnostic to the underlying original format when applying various data processing pipelines to large collections of datasets. Besides, RLDS provides tools for collecting data generated by either synthetic agents or humans, as well as for inspecting and manipulating the collected data. Ultimately, integration with TFDS facilitates the sharing of RL datasets with the research community.

  We formalize behaviour distillation, a setting that aims to discover and condense information required for training an expert policy into a synthetic dataset. We then introduce Hallucinating datasets with Evolution Strategies (HaDES), a method for behaviour distillation that can discover datasets of just four state-action pairs. We show that these datasets generalize out of distribution to training policies with a wide range of architectures. We also demonstrate application to a downstream task, namely training multi-task agents in a zero-shot fashion.

  In low-resource settings, the amount of seed data samples to use for data augmentation is very small. We propose a novel method that augments training data by incorporating a wealth of examples from other datasets. This approach can ensure that the generated data is not only relevant but also more diverse than what could be achieved using the limited seed data alone.

• The Challenges of Exploration for Offline Reinforcement Learning [8.484491887821473]
  We study the two processes of reinforcement learning: collecting informative experience and inferring optimal behaviour. The task-agnostic setting for data collection, where the task is not known a priori, is of particular interest. We use this decoupled framework to strengthen intuitions about exploration and the data prerequisites for effective offline RL.

  We bridge the gap between the abundance of available data and lack of relevant data, for the future learning tasks of a trained network. We use the available data, that may be an imbalanced subset of the original training dataset, or a related domain dataset, to retrieve representative samples. We demonstrate that data from a related domain can be leveraged to achieve state-of-the-art performance.
