QED bounds cross-run KL divergence in Boltzmann policies by setting temperature proportional to Q-disagreement and reduces return variance by two orders of magnitude on 18 continuous-control tasks without performance loss.
The work derives the optimal ratio of dynamics-to-reward samples that minimizes a bound on return error and characterizes the tradeoff between noisy but cheap rewards versus accurate but expensive ones in imagination-based policy optimization.
