This paper presents a method for learning logical task specifications and cost functions from demonstrations. Linear temporal logic (LTL) formulas are widely used to express complex objectives and constraints for autonomous systems. Yet, such specifications may be challenging to construct by hand. Instead, we consider demonstrated task executions, whose temporal logic structure and transition costs need to be inferred by an autonomous agent. We employ a spectral learning approach to extract a weighted finite automaton (WFA), approximating the unknown logic structure of the task. Thereafter, we define a product between the WFA for high-level task guidance and a Labeled Markov decision process (L-MDP) for low-level control and optimize a cost function that matches the demonstrators behavior. We demonstrate that our method is capable of generalizing the execution of the inferred task specification to new environment configurations.

The goal of the inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) problem is to recover the reward functions from expert demonstrations. However, the IRL problem like any ill-posed inverse problem suffers the congenital defect that the policy may be optimal for m
any reward functions, and expert demonstrations may be optimal for many policies. In this work, we generalize the IRL problem to a well-posed expectation optimization problem stochastic inverse reinforcement learning (SIRL) to recover the probability distribution over reward functions. We adopt the Monte Carlo expectation-maximization (MCEM) method to estimate the parameter of the probability distribution as the first solution to the SIRL problem. The solution is succinct, robust, and transferable for a learning task and can generate alternative solutions to the IRL problem. Through our formulation, it is possible to observe the intrinsic property for the IRL problem from a global viewpoint, and our approach achieves a considerable performance on the objectworld.
Bayesian inference over the reward presents an ideal solution to the ill-posed nature of the inverse reinforcement learning problem. Unfortunately current methods generally do not scale well beyond the small tabular setting due to the need for an inn
er-loop MDP solver, and even non-Bayesian methods that do themselves scale often require extensive interaction with the environment to perform well, being inappropriate for high stakes or costly applications such as healthcare. In this paper we introduce our method, Approximate Variational Reward Imitation Learning (AVRIL), that addresses both of these issues by jointly learning an approximate posterior distribution over the reward that scales to arbitrarily complicated state spaces alongside an appropriate policy in a completely offline manner through a variational approach to said latent reward. Applying our method to real medical data alongside classic control simulations, we demonstrate Bayesian reward inference in environments beyond the scope of current methods, as well as task performance competitive with focused offline imitation learning algorithms.
Inverse reinforcement learning attempts to reconstruct the reward function in a Markov decision problem, using observations of agent actions. As already observed by Russell the problem is ill-posed, and the reward function is not identifiable, even u
nder the presence of perfect information about optimal behavior. We provide a resolution to this non-identifiability for problems with entropy regularization. For a given environment, we fully characterize the reward functions leading to a given policy and demonstrate that, given demonstrations of actions for the same reward under two distinct discount factors, or under sufficiently different environments, the unobserved reward can be recovered up to a constant. Through a simple numerical experiment, we demonstrate the accurate reconstruction of the reward function through our proposed resolution.
Reinforcement learning synthesizes controllers without prior knowledge of the system. At each timestep, a reward is given. The controllers optimize the discounted sum of these rewards. Applying this class of algorithms requires designing a reward sch
eme, which is typically done manually. The designer must ensure that their intent is accurately captured. This may not be trivial, and is prone to error. An alternative to this manual programming, akin to programming directly in assembly, is to specify the objective in a formal language and have it compiled to a reward scheme. Mungojerrie (https://plv.colorado.edu/mungojerrie/) is a tool for testing reward schemes for $omega$-regular objectives on finite models. The tool contains reinforcement learning algorithms and a probabilistic model checker. Mungojerrie supports models specified in PRISM and $omega$-automata specified in HOA.
We consider the transfer of experience samples (i.e., tuples < s, a, s, r >) in reinforcement learning (RL), collected from a set of source tasks to improve the learning process in a given target task. Most of the related approaches focus on selectin
g the most relevant source samples for solving the target task, but then all the transferred samples are used without considering anymore the discrepancies between the task models. In this paper, we propose a model-based technique that automatically estimates the relevance (importance weight) of each source sample for solving the target task. In the proposed approach, all the samples are transferred and used by a batch RL algorithm to solve the target task, but their contribution to the learning process is proportional to their importance weight. By extending the results for importance weighting provided in supervised learning literature, we develop a finite-sample analysis of the proposed batch RL algorithm. Furthermore, we empirically compare the proposed algorithm to state-of-the-art approaches, showing that it achieves better learning performance and is very robust to negative transfer, even when some source tasks are significantly different from the target task.
