Empirical Likelihood for Nonsmooth Functionals

arXiv:2603.27743v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Empirical likelihood is an attractive inferential framework that respects natural parameter boundaries, but existing approaches typically require smoothness of the functional and miscalibrate substantially when these assumptions are violated. For the optimal-value functional central to…

On the Hardness of Reinforcement Learning with Transition Look-Ahead

arXiv:2510.19372v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study reinforcement learning (RL) with transition look-ahead, where the agent may observe which states would be visited upon playing any sequence of $ell$ actions before deciding its course of action. While such predictive information…
