Policy Similarity Metric, or PSM, is a similarity metric for measuring behavioral similarity between states in reinforcement learning. It assigns high similarity to states for which the optimal policies in those states as well as in future states are similar. PSM is reward-agnostic, making it more robust for generalization compared to approaches that rely on reward information.

Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (2 dated). Bars are counts, not a trend claim.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
