Title: Unsupervised Behavioral Compression: Learning Low-Dimensional Policy Manifolds through State-Occupancy Matching

Abstract:
arXiv:2603.27044v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) is widely recognized as sample-inefficient, a limitation attributable in part to the high dimensionality and substantial functional redundancy inherent to the policy parameter space. A recent framework, which we refer to as Action-based Policy Compression (APC), mitigates this issue by compressing the parameter space $\Theta$ into a low-dimensional latent manifold $\mathcal Z$ using a learned generative mapping $
