Asynchronous Methods for Deep Reinforcement LearningVolodymyr Puigdom nech P. DeepMind2 Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms (MILA), University of MontrealAbstractWeproposeaconceptuallysi mpleandlightweight framework for deep reinforce-ment Learning that uses Asynchronous gradientdescent for optimization of deep neural networkcontrollers. We present Asynchronous variants offour standard Reinforcement Learning algorithmsand show that parallel actor-learners have astabilizing effect on training allowing all fourmethods to successfully train neural best performing method, anasynchronous variant of actor-critic, surpassesthe current state-of-the-art on the Atari domainwhile training for half the time on a singlemulti-core CPU instead of a GPU.
3. Reinforcement Learning Background We consider the standard reinforcement learning setting where an agent interacts with an environment Eover a number of discrete time steps. At each time step t, the agent receives a state s tand selects an action a tfrom some set of possible actions Aaccording to its policy ˇ, where ˇis a mapping from states s
