原文アブストラクト
Safe exploration remains a fundamental challenge in reinforcement learning (RL), limiting the deployment of RL agents in the real world. We propose Sampling-Based Safe Reinforcement Learning (SBSRL), a model-based RL algorithm that maintains safety throughout the learning process by enforcing constraints jointly across a finite set of dynamics samples. This formulation approximates an intractable worst-case optimization over uncertain dynamics and enables practical safety guarantees in continuous domains. We further introduce an exploration strategy based on constraining epistemic uncertainty, eliminating the need for explicit exploration bonuses. Under regularity conditions, we derive high-probability guarantees of safety throughout learning and a finite-time sample complexity bound for recovering a near-optimal policy. Empirically, SBSRL achieves safe and efficient exploration both in simulation and in real robotic hardware, and readily extends to practical deep-ensemble implementations that scale to high-dimensional continuous control problems.
