DISTRIBUTIONAL REINFORCEMENT LEARNING FOR CONTINUOUS CONTROL TASKS

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for training an action selection neural network that is used to select actions to be performed by a reinforcement learning agent interacting with an environment. In particular, the actions are selected from a continuous action space and the system trains the action selection neural network jointly with a distribution Q network that is used to update the parameters of the action selection neural network.
