Abstract: Reward-optimal policies obtained by training deep reinforcement learning agents may not be aligned with one’s personal preferences. Rectifying this by retraining the agent with a user-specific reward function is impractical, as such functions are not readily available. In addition, retraining is associated with high costs. Instead, we propose to adapt via policy fusion, the already trained policy with the user’s intent, which we in turn infer from trajectory-level feedback. We design the policy fusion process to be dynamic, such that the resulting policy is neither dominated by the task goals nor the user needs. We empirically demonstrate that our method consistently balances these objectives across various environments.
