Reinforcement Learning-Based Prompt Optimization Technique

A Reinforcement Learning-Based Prompt Optimization Technique is a prompt optimization technique that formulates prompt optimization as a reinforcement learning problem with policy networks and reward functions.

• AKA: Reinforcement Learning-Based Prompt Optimization, RL Prompt Optimization, Reward-Based Prompt Learning, Policy-Based Prompt Optimization, Reinforcement Prompt Learning.
• Context:
  • It can generate discrete prompt policys with reward stabilization and policy gradients.
