Conformal Policy Control
arXiv:2603.02196v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: An agent must try new behaviors to explore and improve. In high-stakes environments, an agent that violates safety constraints may cause harm and must be taken offline, curtailing any future interaction. Imitating old behavior is safe, but excessive conservatism discourages exploration. How much behavior change is too much? We show how to use any safe reference policy as a probabilistic regulator for any optimized but untested policy. Conformal calibration on data from the […]
