Actor-Critic Algorithm for Dynamic Expectile and CVaR

ArXi:2605.07857v1 Announce Type: new Optimizing dynamic risk with stochastic policies is challenging in both policy updates and value learning. The former typically requires transition perturbation, while the latter may rely on model-based approaches. To address these challenges, we propose a surrogate policy gradient without transition perturbation under softmax policy parameterization. We further develop model-free value learning methods for dynamic expectile and conditional value-at-risk by leveraging elicitability.
