Epistemic Robust Offline Reinforcement Learning

Description

Offline reinforcement learning learns policies from fixed datasets without further environment interaction. A key challenge in this setting is epistemic uncertainty, arising from limited or biased data coverage, particularly when the behavior policy systematically avoids certain actions. This can lead to inaccurate value estimates and unreliable generalization. Ensemble-based methods like SAC-N mitigate this by conservatively estimating Q-values using the ensemble minimum, but they require large
