Learning on a Budget via Teacher Imitation
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we extend the idea of advice reusing via teacher imitation to construct a unified approach that addresses both advice collection and advice utilisation problems. ...
Action advising is a framework that provides a flexible way to transfer such knowledge in the form of actions between teacher-student peers. ...
