Imagine to Ensure Safety in Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning

Researchers propose a hierarchical reinforcement learning method that combines learned world models with dual-level policies to enable safe exploration in long-horizon tasks. The approach uses high-level subgoals to guide exploration toward safe regions and low-level imagined rollouts to minimize unsafe behaviors, demonstrating significant improvements over existing Safe RL baselines on complex navigation and manipulation tasks.

Who Earns the Safety? Intervention-Aware Quantum Predictive Control with Safety Attribution

Researchers introduce Intervention-Aware Variational Quantum Differentiable Predictive Control (IA-VQC-DPC), a quantum machine learning framework that addresses a critical problem in safe reinforcement learning: distinguishing whether safety comes from the learned policy or from protective safety filters. The method uses Control-Barrier Functions with attribution protocols to measure true policy competence, demonstrating that quantum policies can achieve superior safety and comfort metrics compared to classical baselines at equivalent parameter budgets.
