archive 2025-07-28 Description, source and code snippet are the archive's method entry.

Building on the recent successes of distributed training of RL agents, R2D2 is an RL approach that trains a RNN-based RL agents from distributed prioritized experience replay. Using a single network architecture and fixed set of hyperparameters, Recurrent Replay Distributed DQN quadrupled the previous state of the art on Atari-57, and matches the state of the art on DMLab-30. It was the first agent to exceed human-level performance in 52 of the 57 Atari games.

Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (25 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).
