Excited to announce that our work on “Discovering state-of-the-art RL algorithms” is finally published in @Nature! In this work, we meta-learned RL algorithms at scale.

See thread 👇
What did it discover? DiscoRL discovered entirely new prediction semantics.
While humans rely on concepts like "value functions," DiscoRL learned to predict salient future events - like high rewards or changes in policy entropy - that complement traditional RL concepts.
Work done with the amazing team: @iurii_kemaev [tech lead], @greg_far, @dancalian, @luisa_zintgraf, @matteohessel, Satinder Singh, @hado, David Silver

Excited to share our new paper, "DataRater: Meta-Learned Dataset Curation"!
We explore a fundamental question: How can we *automatically* learn which data is most valuable for training foundation models?
Paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2505.17895 to appear @NeurIPSConf

I will be briefly talking about how I used JAX to implement my recent #NeurIPS2020 work on Discovering RL Algorithms (arxiv.org/pdf/2007.08794.pdf). Stop by our livestream if you are interested. :)
Join our team at the #NeurIPS2020 JAX Ecosystem meet up to learn more about JAX and why it's effective for research in reinforcement learning, GANs, meta-gradients and more.
Today at 11am PST / 2pm ET/ 7pm GMT

Our most recent work is out in Nature! We're reporting on (reinforcement) learning to navigate Loon stratospheric balloons and minimizing the sim2real gap. Results from a 39-day Pacific Ocean experiment show RL keeps its strong lead in real conditions. nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

In a major scientific breakthrough, the latest version of #AlphaFold has been recognised as a solution to one of biology's grand challenges - the “protein folding problem”. It was validated today at #CASP14, the biennial Critical Assessment of protein Structure Prediction (1/3)

really happy to announce the next version of our #RL framework: Dopamine 2.0!
beyond atari: now we support general discrete-domain gym environments.
we've been using this internally for our research and it allows us to test out new ideas very quickly.
try it out!
Introducing Dopamine 2.0, a major update to the open source framework for flexible reinforcement learning.
No longer limited to the Arcade Learning Environment, researchers can now iterate faster on ideas before testing them on larger Atari games. opensource.googleblog.com/20…

Excited to share a quite extensive introduction to deep reinforcement learning! With @astro_pyotr @riashatislam @marcgbellemare and Joelle Pineau, we hope it will be useful to the community. Print version available at #NeurIPS! arxiv.org/abs/1811.12560

"Self-Imitation Learning," Oh and Guo et al.: arxiv.org/abs/1806.05635
Imitating past good experiences in the replay buffer leads to big improvements over A2C, PPO, inc. good Montezuma performance in fewer frames than prior approaches
