  • Gap-Dependent Bounds for Nearly Minimax Optimal Reinforcement Learning with Linear Function Approximation

    Gap-Dependent Bounds for Nearly Minimax Optimal Reinforcement Learning with Linear Function Approximation arXiv:2602.20297v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study gap-dependent performance guarantees for nearly minimax-optimal algorithms in reinforcement learning with linear function approximation. While prior works have established gap-dependent regret bounds in this setting, existing analyses do not apply to algorithms that achieve the nearly…

  • Gap-Dependent Bounds for Federated $Q$-learning

    Gap-Dependent Bounds for Federated $Q$-learning arXiv:2502.02859v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present the first gap-dependent analysis of regret and communication cost for on-policy federated $Q$-Learning in tabular episodic finite-horizon Markov decision processes (MDPs). Existing FRL methods focus on worst-case scenarios, leading to $sqrt{T}$-type regret bounds and communication cost bounds with a $log T$ term scaling…
