A World Model is a generative recurrent neural network that is quickly trained in an unsupervised manner to model popular reinforcement learning environments through compressed spatio-temporal representations. Ha and Schmidhuber achieve state-of-the-art results for OpenAI Gym environments such as CarRacing-v0 by evolving a simple policy that uses these compressed representations.

In our talk, we will give an introduction to Markov Decision Processes and Model-based reinforcement learning (RL). Then we dissect the Ha and Schmidhuber paper and describe more recent work expanding on these ideas.
