Gap Minimization

Gap minimization research focuses on reducing discrepancies between different models, datasets, or agents to improve performance and efficiency. Current efforts concentrate on developing algorithms that minimize these gaps in various contexts, including online matrix completion (using phased algorithms to optimize recommendations), autonomous driving (optimizing speed planning through quadratic programming), and multi-agent reinforcement learning (using discrete communication strategies to minimize return gaps). These advancements have significant implications for improving machine learning model accuracy, enhancing the safety and efficiency of autonomous systems, and facilitating more effective knowledge transfer and sharing across diverse learning tasks.
