Multi-Game Decision Transformers
Open accessAbstract
A longstanding goal of the field of AI is a method for learning a highly capable, generalist agent from diverse experience. In the subfields of vision and language, this was largely achieved by scaling up transformer-based models and training them on large, diverse datasets. Motivated by this progress, we investigate whether the same strategy can be used to produce generalist reinforcement learning agents. Specifically, we show that a single transformer-based model - with a single set of weights - trained purely offline can play a suite of up to 46 Atari games simultaneously at close-to-human performance. When trained and evaluated appropriately, we find that the same trends observed in language and vision hold, including scaling of performance with model size and rapid adaptation to new games via fine-tuning. We compare several approaches in this multi-game setting, such as online and offline RL methods and behavioral cloning, and find that our Multi-Game Decision Transformer models offer the best scalability and performance. We release the pre-trained models and code to encourage further research in this direction.

Existing literature that studies scaling of neural architectures for decision-making typically assumes access to large datasets of near-expert demonstrations for behavior cloning.
“Existing literature that studies scaling of neural architectures for decision-making typically assume access to large datasets of near-expert demonstrations for behavior cloning (Reed et al., 2022; Lee et al., 2022; Kumar et al., 2022; Schubert et al., 2023; Driess et al., 2023; Brohan et al., 2023).”
From TD-MPC2: Scalable, Robust World Models for Continuous Control (2023) · cites this paper as Lee et al., 2022
The Training Dataset section (p. 4) says this paper trains on both expert and non-expert behavior without filtering for expert demonstrations. Related Work (p. 3) contrasts its approach with a concurrent study whose data are exclusively near-optimal. Thus this paper is a contrary example, not an example of scaling research that assumes near-expert demonstrations for behavior cloning. (LLM, conf=0.86)
Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredCurrent approaches to generalist embodied agents suffer from the assumption of near-expert trajectories for behavior cloning, which severely limits the amount of available data.
“current approaches to generalist embodied agents suffer from (a) the assumption of near-expert trajectories for behavior cloning which severely limits the amount of available data”
From TD-MPC2: Scalable, Robust World Models for Continuous Control (2023) · cites this paper as Lee et al., 2022
Section 4.8 (p. 9) finds that training only on expert data improves behavioral cloning, and Related Work (p. 3) describes one concurrent generalist agent trained exclusively on near-optimal data. These passages support an expert-data limitation for some approaches, but do not establish that current approaches generally assume near-expert trajectories or that this severely limits available data.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
