Investigating Human Priors for Playing Video Games
Rachit Dubey, Pulkit Agrawal, Deepak Pathak, Thomas L. Griffiths, Alexei A. Efros
ICML 2018
This game placed us in the shoes of reinforcement learning (RL) agents that start off without the immense prior knowledge that humans possess.
On The Effect of Auxiliary Tasks on Representation Dynamics
Clare Lyle, Mark Rowland, Georg Ostrovski, Will Dabney
AISTATS 2021
Even in an environment with no reward signal at all, an agent performing TD learning still picks up information about the transition structure of the environment within its value function.

Making Deep Q-learning methods robust to time discretization
Corentin Tallec, Léonard Blier, Yann Ollivier
ICML 2019
Standard approaches based on estimation of state-action values, such as DQN1 and DDPG2 are not at all robust to changes in time discretization (i.e. increasing FPS from 50 to 1000).
The Value Function Polytope in Reinforcement Learning
Robert Dadashi, Adrien Ali Taïga, Nicolas Le Roux, Dale Schuurmans, Marc G. Bellemare
ICML 2019
We characterized the shape of value functions and established its surprising geometric nature: a possibly non-convex polytope.
