Abstract

Proposes RepMT-SAC, a framework for multi-task RL that enables efficient knowledge sharing and robust transfer to new tasks. Uses spectral MDP decomposition to capture transferable dynamics, structuring the value function into a task-agnostic core with a minimal task-specific adjustment. Allows for strong zero-shot performance on in-distribution tasks and rapid few-shot adaptation to out-of-distribution tasks. Evaluated on quadcopter trajectory-following tasks across in-distribution and out-of-distribution contexts, outperforming baselines by up to 30%.
