  1. Proximal Policy Optimization Algorithms

    667 Pith citing papers 2017 arXiv:1707.06347 accept novelty 7.0 3 RS theorems

    A clipped surrogate objective L^CLIP = E[min(r_t A_t, clip(r_t, 1-ε, 1+ε) A_t)] enables multi-epoch minibatch policy updates with TRPO-like stability but first-order optimization.

  2. Adam: A Method for Stochastic Optimization

    666 Pith citing papers 2014 arXiv:1412.6980 accept novelty 7.5 4 RS theorems

    A first-order stochastic optimizer that maintains bias-corrected exponential moving averages of the gradient and its square, dividing the former by the square root of the latter to set per-parameter step sizes.
