Recently,anincreasing number ofalgorithms for curriculum generation havebeen proposed, empirically demonstrating that CL is an appropriate tool to improve the sample efficiency of DRL algorithms [9, 10]. However, these algorithms are based on heuristics and concepts that are, as ofnow,theoretically notwell understood, preventing theestablishment ofrigorous improvements. In contrast, we propose to generate the curriculum based on a principled inference view on RL. Our approach generates the curriculum based on two quantities: The value function of the agent and the KL divergence to a target distribution of tasks.

It's common for young lynxes to play with their prey before killing it. This one repeatedly threw the rodent high in the air and caught it again.
