Near Minimax Rates for Quantile Distributional Reinforcement Learning

In this paper, we study quantile distributional policy evaluation, where the return distribution under a given policy is approximated by the quantile Bellman fixed point $\bm\eta_m$. We investigate the statistical accuracy of estimating $\bm\eta_m$ across quantile resolutions under Wasserstein distances. Assuming acces...

A Finite-Sample Analysis of Quantile Temporal-Difference Learning

A global high-probability last-iterate guarantee for synchronous tabular QTD under general positive, nonincreasing step-size sequences and arbitrary initialization in the natural parameter range is established.

A Finite Sample Analysis for Quantile Temporal Difference Learning in Distributional Reinforcement Learning

We establish a global finite-sample guarantee for synchronous quantile temporal-difference learning (QTD) in tabular distributional reinforcement learning. The proof separates two stability mechanisms. A global comparison argument, based on the order monotonicity of reward cumulative distribution functions and the $W_\...
