Domain invariant Q-learning for model-free robust continuous control under visual distractions

Résumé

End-to-end reinforcement learning on images showed significant performance progress in the recent years, especially with regularization to value estimation brought by data augmentation (Yarats et al., 2020). At the same time, domain randomization and representation learning helped push the limits of these algorithms in visually diverse environments, full of distractors and spurious noise, making RL more robust to unrelated visual features. We present DIQL, a method that combines risk invariant regularization and domain randomization to reduce out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization gap for temporal-difference learning. In this work, we draw a link by framing domain randomization as a richer extension of data augmentation to RL and support its generalized use. Our model-free approach improve baselines performances without the need of additional representation learning objectives and with limited additional computational cost. We show that DIQL outperforms existing methods on complex visuo-motor control environment with high visual perturbation. In particular, our approach achieves state-of the-art performance on the Distracting Control Suite benchmark, where we evaluate the robustness to a number of visual perturbators, as well as OOD generalization and extrapolation capabilities.
