#1 Improved Worst-Case Regret Bounds for Randomized Least-Squares Value Iteration [PDF] [Copy] [Kimi]

Authors: Priyank Agrawal ; Jinglin Chen ; Nan Jiang

This paper studies regret minimization with randomized value functions in reinforcement learning. In tabular finite-horizon Markov Decision Processes, we introduce a clipping variant of one classical Thompson Sampling (TS)-like algorithm, randomized least-squares value iteration (RLSVI). Our $\tilde{\mathrm{O}}(H^2S\sqrt{AT})$ high-probability worst-case regret bound improves the previous sharpest worst-case regret bounds for RLSVI and matches the existing state-of-the-art worst-case TS-based regret bounds.
