In imitation learning the machine learns by mimicking the behavior of an expert system whereas in reinforcement learning the machine learns via direct environment feedback. Traditional deep reinforcement learning takes a significant time before the machine starts to converge to an optimal policy. This paper proposes Augmented Q-Imitation-Learning, a method by which deep reinforcement learning convergence can be accelerated by applying Q-imitation-learning as the initial training process in traditional Deep Q-learning.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.00993v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2004.00993v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"augmented-q-imitation-learning-aqil","repo_url":"https://github.com/veda-s4dhak/AQIL","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"deep-reinforcement-learning","task_name":"Deep Reinforcement Learning"},{"task_slug":"imitation-learning","task_name":"Imitation Learning"},{"task_slug":"q-learning","task_name":"Q-Learning"},{"task_slug":"reinforcement-learning","task_name":"Reinforcement Learning"},{"task_slug":"reinforcement-learning-1","task_name":"Reinforcement Learning (RL)"},{"task_slug":"reinforcement-learning-2","task_name":"reinforcement-learning"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
