Provably Safe Sim-to-Real Transfer

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 1, 2026 · UTC

To mitigate the sample complexity of real-world reinforcement learning (RL), a common practice is to first train a policy in a simulator, where samples are cheap, and then deploy the learned policy in the real world with the hope that it generalizes effectively. Such direct sim-to-real transfer is not guaranteed to succeed: simulator-trained policies can be suboptimal in the real world due to sim-to-real mismatch. Correcting this mismatch requires collecting data from the real system, but in many applications, such as robotics and healthcare, this data-collection process is itself subject to s
