Weekly Tech Highlights: AI Chip, Cloud Forecasts, Docker M1 Preview & More
This week’s developer newsletter spotlights the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ pioneering GNN accelerator chip, IDC’s ten cloud computing predictions for China, the booming IoT market and 5G dominance, Docker’s M1‑compatible desktop preview, a carbon‑nanotube transistor breakthrough, IBM’s FHE initiative, and recent AI research on lifelong learning and reinforcement learning exploration.
Policy‑search planning improves exploration in continuous‑domain deep RL
Local policy search in deep reinforcement learning (D‑RL) often gets trapped in local minima. The authors integrate a dynamics designer into the exploration strategy and learn control policies offline from generated interactions, naming the method PPS (Policy‑Search Planning). Experiments show PPS collects data from larger state‑space regions compared to state‑of‑the‑art D‑RL methods.
