description

In mission-critical, real-world environments, there is typically a low threshold for failure, which makes interaction with learning algorithms particularly challenging. Here, current state-of-the-art reinforcement learning algorithms struggle to learn optimal control policies safely. Loss of control follows, which could result in equipment breakages and even personal injuries.
