Q-learning Penalized Transformer for Safe Offline Reinforcement Learning

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.34426v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This paper addresses the problem of safe offline reinforcement learning, which involves training a policy to satisfy safety constraints using an offline dataset. This problem is inherently challenging as it requires balancing three highly interconnected and competing objectives: satisfying safety constraints, maximizing rewards, and adhering to the behavior regularization imposed by the offline dataset. To tackle this trilogy challenge, we propose Q-learning Penalized Transformer policy (QPT), a \emph{training--inference consistent} framework that bridges conditional sequence modeling with constraint-aware value estimation. QPT trains a Transformer policy that generates actions conditioned on trajectory context and target return/cost, ret
