• Abstract: Prioritized Experience Replay (PER) enables the model to learn more about relatively important samples by artificially changing their accessed frequencies. However, this non-uniform sampling method shifts the state-action distribution that is originally used to estimate Q-value functions, which brings about the estimation deviation. In this article, an novel off policy reinforcement learning training framework called Directly Attention Loss Adjusted Prioritized Experience Replay (DALAP) is proposed, which can directly quantify the changed extent of the shifted distribution through Parallel Self-Attention network, so as to accurately compensate the error. In addition, a Priority-Encouragement mechanism is designed simultaneously to optimize the sample screening criterion, and further improve the training efficiency. In order to verify the effectiveness and generality of DALAP, we integrate it with the value-function based, the policy-gradient based and multi-agent reinforcement learning algorithm, respectively. The multiple groups of comparative experiments show that DALAP has the significant advantages of both improving the convergence rate and reducing the training variance.

PCRM incorporates prior constraints, specifically, length ratio and cosine similarity between outputs of each comparison pair, during reward model training to regulate optimization magnitude and control score margins. Experimental results demonstrate that PCRM significantly improves alignment performance by effectively constraining reward score scaling.

• Attention Loss Adjusted Prioritized Experience Replay [0.0]
  Prioritized Replay Experience (PER) is a technical means of deep reinforcement learning by selecting experience samples with more knowledge quantity to improve the training rate of neural network. Non-uniform sampling used in PER inevitably shifts the state-action space distribution and brings the estimation error of Q-value function. An Attention Loss Adjusted Prioritized (ALAP) Experience Replay algorithm is proposed, which integrates the improved Self-Attention network with Double-Sampling mechanism.

  Prioritized Experience Replay (PER) allows agents to learn from transitions sampled with non-uniform probability proportional to their temporal-difference (TD) error. We introduce a novel experience replay sampling framework for actor-critic methods, which also regards issues with stability and recent findings behind the poor empirical performance of PER. An extensive set of experiments verifies our theoretical claims and demonstrates that the introduced method significantly outperforms the competing approaches.
