Abstract: In this paper, we present a model-based offline reinforcement learning method that integrates count-based conservatism, named $\texttt{Count-MORL}$. Our method utilizes the count estimates of state-action pairs to quantify model estimation error, marking the first algorithm of demonstrating the efficacy of count-based conservatism in model-based offline deep RL to the best of our knowledge. For our proposed method, we first show that the estimation error is inversely proportional to the frequency of state-action pairs. Secondly, we demonstrate that the learned policy under the count-based conservative model offers near-optimality performance guarantees. Through extensive numerical experiments, we validate that $\texttt{Count-MORL}$ with hash code implementation significantly outperforms existing offline RL algorithms on the D4RL benchmark datasets.
