Abstract
Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) provides a new way to generate robot control policy. However, the process of training control policy requires lengthy exploration, resulting in a low sample efficiency of reinforcement learning (RL) in real-world tasks. Both imitation learning (IL) and learning from demonstrations (LfD) improve the training process by using expert demonstrations, but imperfect expert demonstrations can mislead policy improvement. Offline to Online reinforcement learning requires a lot of offline data to initialize the policy, and distribution shift can easily lead to performance degradation during online fine-tuning. To solve the above problems, we propose a learning from demonstrations method named A-SILfD, which treats expert demonstrations as the agent's successful experiences and uses experiences to constrain policy improvement. Furthermore, we prevent performance degradation due to large estimation errors in the Q-function by the ensemble Q-functions. Our experime
