Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for reinforcement learning using goals and observations. One of the methods includes receiving an observation characterizing a current state of the environment; receiving a goal characterizing a target state from a set of target states of the environment; processing the observation using an observation neural network to generate a numeric representation of the observation; processing the goal using a goal neural network to generate a numeric representation of the goal; combining the numeric representation of the observation and the numeric representation of the goal to generate a combined representation; processing the combined representation using an action score neural network to generate a respective score for each action in the predetermined set of actions; and selecting the action to be performed using the respective scores for the actions in the predetermined set of actions.
