What is recorded here?
Used an expectation-maximization style policy-improvement step with constrained nonparametric targets followed by parametric policy fitting; V-MPO adapts this approach to on-policy, value-based advantage weighting.
Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.
Scientific scope
Bundled off-policy MPO2018 and on-policy V-MPO2019 with distinct original bylines, not one common author list. Inherits EM, relative-entropy policy search and policy iteration; KL constraints and reported stability do not ensure globally optimal neural policies or arbitrary trust-region equivalence.
