OPRIDE: Offline Preference-based Reinforcement Learning via In-Dataset Exploration

ArXi:2604.02349v1 Announce Type: cross Preference-based reinforcement learning (PbRL) can help avoid sophisticated reward designs and align better with human intentions, showing great promise in various real-world applications. However, obtaining human feedback for preferences can be expensive and time-consuming, which forms a strong barrier for PbRL. In this work, we address the problem of low query efficiency in offline PbRL, pinpointing two primary reasons: inefficient exploration and overoptimization of learned reward functions.
