Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for training a neural network system used to control an agent interacting with an environment. One of the methods includes receiving a current observation; processing the current observation using a proposal neural network to generate a proposal output that defines a proposal probability distribution over a set of possible actions that can be performed by the agent to interact with the environment; sampling (i) one or more actions from the set of possible actions in accordance with the proposal probability distribution and (ii) one or more actions randomly from the set of possible actions; processing the current observation and each sampled action using a Q neural network to generate a Q value; and selecting an action using the Q values generated by the Q neural network.
