The key parameters in the worked example are:

  • A_TRUE: State persistence coefficient (0.9). Determines how much current state carries forward.
  • B_TRUE: Linear action coefficient (0.5). Determines the direct effect of the action.
  • CURVATURE_TRUE: Positive-action curvature coefficient (0.35). Adds nonlinearity for positive actions.
  • NOISE_STD: Process noise standard deviation (0.05). Controls stochasticity of transitions.
  • n_episodes: Number of trajectories collected (200). More episodes increase coverage but cost more interaction.
  • horizon: Steps per episode (20). It controls the number of correlated transitions collected per episode; the example evaluates one-step error rather than rollout compounding.
  • behavior_biased: Behavior policy that determines the collected state-action distribution. The held-out target actions are sampled uniformly and paired with resampled behavior states.
