Deep Reinforcement Learning from Human Preferences“For sophisticated reinforcement learning (RL) systems to interact usefully with real-world environments, we need to communicate complex goals to these systems. … We explore goals defined in terms of (non-expert) human preferences between pairs of trajectory segments.”
