Prioritized Experience Replay

TLDR
Prioritized experience replay as mentioned in this paper is a framework for prioritizing experience, so as to replay important transitions more frequently, and therefore learn more efficiently, achieving human-level performance across many Atari games.
Abstract
Experience replay lets online reinforcement learning agents remember and reuse experiences from the past. In prior work, experience transitions were uniformly sampled from a replay memory. However, this approach simply replays transitions at the same frequency that they were originally experienced, regardless of their significance. In this paper we develop a framework for prioritizing experience, so as to replay important transitions more frequently, and therefore learn more efficiently. We use prioritized experience replay in Deep Q-Networks (DQN), a reinforcement learning algorithm that achieved human-level performance across many Atari games. DQN with prioritized experience replay achieves a new state-of-the-art, outperforming DQN with uniform replay on 41 out of 49 games.

How to Discount Deep Reinforcement Learning: Towards New Dynamic Strategies

TL;DR: When the discount factor progressively increases up to its final value, it is empirically shown that it is possible to significantly reduce the number of learning steps and the possibility to fall within a local optimum during the learning process, thus connecting the discussion with the exploration/exploitation dilemma.
