I am in Vancouver at ICML, and tomorrow I will present our newest paper "Partially Observable Reinforcement Learning with Memory Traces". We argue that eligibility traces are more effective than sliding windows as a memory mechanism for RL in POMDPs. 🧵

When I first started working with Doina as a master’s student 7 years ago, this was the first idea that I tried (github.com/NishanthVAna...). But, I gave up on it too soon! I’m happy and pleased to see you explore this path in depth with a solid paper! E-traces are the best idea to come out of RL!!

Neat! What about two neural networks that have different architectures? Are there any metrics that you’re aware of could help compare them?

Does this mean we can evaluate the representation quality of two different neutral networks and objectively say one is better than the other?

We had a lab social and the mandatory pic after 💜
