No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Significant research effort has been directed in recent years towards establishing both asymptotic and non-asymptotic convergence guarantees for two-timescale actor--critic algorithms, where the actor recursion is run on a slower timescale than the critic recursion. This work derives a uniform all-time concentration bound for the actor--critic algorithm with function approximation in the long-run average-reward setting. This bound helps us analyze the behavior of the actor parameter with high probability. We show that, after some finite time, the actor parameter enters a safe region and remains within it thereafter with high probability. Specifically, with probability at least $1-ε_1-ε_2$, the actor error $\Vert θ_k-θ^{*}\Vert$ is $O\left(\frac{n_0^{3/4}}{k}\frac{1}{\sqrt{ε_2}}+\left(\frac{1}{n_0}\right)^{1/4}\log^{1/4}\left(\frac{1}{ε_1}\right)+\left(\frac{1}{n_0}\right)^{1/4}\right)$ for all $k\geq n_0$ and sufficiently large $n_0$. We also present experimental results demonstrating that the aforementioned actor error diminishes with the number of actor-parameter updates.
