Model-based reinforcement learning algorithms with probabilistic dynamical models are amongst the most data-efficient learning methods. This is often attributed to their ability to distinguish between epistemic and aleatoric uncertainty. However, while most algorithms distinguish these two uncertainties for {\em learning} the model, they ignore it when {\em optimizing} the policy. In this paper, we show that ignoring the epistemic uncertainty leads to greedy algorithms that do not explore sufficiently. In turn, we propose a {\em practical optimistic-exploration algorithm} (\alg), which enlarges the input space with {\em hallucinated} inputs that can exert as much control as the {\em epistemic} uncertainty in the model affords. We analyze this setting and construct a general regret bound for well-calibrated models, which is provably sublinear in the case of Gaussian Process models. Based on this theoretical foundation, we show how optimistic exploration can be easily combined with state-of-the-art reinforcement learning algorithms and different probabilistic models. Our experiments demonstrate that optimistic exploration significantly speeds up learning when there are penalties on actions, a setting that is notoriously difficult for existing model-based reinforcement learning algorithms.

This papers revisits the receptive theory in context of computational creativity. It presents a case study of a Paranoid Transformer - a fully autonomous text generation engine with raw output that could be read as the narrative of a mad digital persona without any additional human post-filtering. We describe technical details of the generative system, provide examples of output and discuss the impact of receptive theory, chance discovery and simulation of fringe mental state on the understanding of computational creativity.

Further, we discuss only open academic research with entertaining wit and knowledge while making others feel reproducible published results, hence we will not address heard. The breadth of possible conversation topics and lack much of the considerable work that has been put into building of a well-defined objective make it challenging to define a commercial systems, where methods, data and results roadmap towards training a good conversational agent, or are not in the public domain. Finally, given that we focus on chatbot. Despite recent progress across the board (Adiwardana open-domain conversation, we do not focus on specific goaloriented et al., 2020; Roller et al., 2020), conversational agents techniques; we also do not cover spoken dialogue in are still incapable of carrying an open-domain conversation this work, focusing on text and image input/output only. For that remains interesting, consistent, accurate, and reliably more general recent surveys, see Gao et al. (2019); Jurafsky well-behaved (e.g., not offensive) while navigating a variety and Martin (2019); Huang, Zhu, and Gao (2020). of topics. Traditional task-oriented dialogue systems rely on slotfilling and structured modules (e.g., Young et al. (2013); Gao et al. (2019); Jurafsky and Martin (2019)).

We are now more than a month past the point when E3 2020 would've ended. It lives in your heart, in your soul, and on your television. Today we finally reached the "1PM Monday Afternoon" slot, a.k.a. Much of what Ubisoft showed at its faux-press conference, we already knew about--Watch Dogs Legion, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, and the recently leaked Far Cry 6. But hey, they managed to keep Tom Clancy's Elite Squad under wraps (for what that's worth), and the Assassin's Creed footage looked pretty neat.
