Imitation Learning in Discounted Linear MDPs without exploration assumptions

Volkan Cevher, Luca Viano, Efstratios Panteleimon Skoulakis

We present a new algorithm for imitation learning in infinite horizon linear MDPs dubbed ILARL which greatly improves the bound on the number of trajectories that the learner needs to sample from the environment. In particular, we re- move exploration assu ...
