At NeurIPS, Aravind presented his paper “MOReL: Model-Based Offline Reinforcement Learning.” In our conversation, we explore model-based reinforcement learning and if models are a “prerequisite” to achieve something analogous to transfer learning. We also dig into MOReL and the recent progress in offline reinforcement learning, the differences in developing MOReL models and traditional RL models, and the theoretical results they’re seeing from this research.
Thanks to our Sponsor!
