Goal-conditioned Offline Planning
Curiosity has established itself as a powerful exploration strategy in deep reinforcement learning. We consider the challenge of extracting flexible, goal-conditioned behavior from the products of such unsupervised exploration techniques, without any additional environment interaction. An object of central importance to this function is a value function, encoding “temporal distance” between any given state and goals. By analyzing the geometry of optimal goal-conditioned value functions, we highlight estimation artifacts in learned values. In order to mitigate their occurrence, we propose to combine model-based planning over learned value landscapes with a graph-based value aggregation scheme. We show how this combination can correct both local and global artifacts, obtaining significant improvements in zero-shot goal-reaching performance across diverse simulated environments.
