Notice: The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates. Full accuracy metrics and methodology are described in [1].

Research Type Theoretical In this paper, we derive ๏ฌnite-sample bounds for any general off-policy TD-like stochastic approximation algorithm that solves for the ๏ฌxed-point of this generalized Bellman operator. Our key step is to show that the generalized Bellman operator is simultaneously a contraction mapping with respect to a weighted โ„“p-norm for each p in [1, ), with a common contraction factor. ...
