タスク認識表現を備えたDecision Transformerによるオフライン・メタ強化学習

原文アブストラクト

To enable effective generalization in offline meta-RL, it is essential to accurately infer the underlying task through latent task representations, which provide a compact and transferable summary of task-specific characteristics for guiding policy generation. In this paper, we propose Contrastive Task-Aware Decision Transformer (CoTA-DT), a DT-based offline meta-RL framework that learns task representations by jointly integrating four complementary components: (i) contrastive learning from offline trajectories, (ii) alignment with natural-language task descriptions, (iii) one-step supervision via a task-conditioned world model, and (iv) long-term supervision via a task-conditioned Q function. The learned task representations are used as conditioning signals for a DT-based policy, enabling task-aware meta-policy learning. To further support generalization in both zero-shot and few-shot settings, we design a language-grounded, self-adaptive strategy that enables effective and reliable adaptation to unseen tasks. Notably, in CoTA-DT, the pretrained LLM serves as a shared backbone for language encoding, world modeling, Q-function estimation, and policy learning. This unified design facilitates parameter sharing, improving both efficiency and generalization. Extensive experiments across diverse offline meta-RL benchmarks demonstrate that CoTA-DT consistently outperforms prior methods, particularly in challenging zero-shot generalization scenarios.
