Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| enable goal imagination (compose known goals) (ablation) | IMAGINE with modular-attention policy · Playground testing goals | SR_test: 0.51 -> 0.76 | Helped |
| enable goal imagination (ablation) | IMAGINE with flat-architecture policy · Playground testing goals | SR_test: 0.17 -> 0.15 | No clear effect |
| use modular-attention policy instead of flat architecture (ablation) | IMAGINE · Playground testing goals | SR_test: 0.17 -> 0.51 (no imagination); 0.15 -> 0.76 (imagination) | Helped |
| reduce precision of imagined goals (ablation) | goal imagination · Playground testing goals | SR_test | Hurt |
| reduce coverage of imagined goals (ablation) | goal imagination · Playground testing goals | SR_test | No clear effect |
| replace construction-grammar imagination with random word sequences (ablation) | goal imagination · Playground testing goals | SR_test | No clear effect |
| social partner present only 10% of episodes (spread uniformly), with imagination (ablation) | IMAGINE · Playground testing goals | SR_test | Hurt |
| concentrate same 10% feedback in first 10% of episodes, with imagination (ablation) | IMAGINE · Playground testing goals | SR_test | Helped |
