Hierarchical Deep Q-Network with Forgetting from Imperfect Demonstrations in Minecraft
We present hierarchical Deep Q-Network with Forgetting (HDQF) that took first place in MineRL competition. HDQF works on imperfect demonstrations utilize hierarchical structure of expert trajectories extracting effective sequence of meta-actions and subgoals. We introduce structured task dependent replay buffer and forgetting technique that allow the HDQF agent to gradually erase poor-quality expert data from the buffer. In this paper we present the details of the HDQF algorithm and give the experimental results in Minecraft domain.
