Offline reinforcement learning (offline RL) can benefit from nearby out-of-distribution (OOD) actions, but estimation errors at these actions may be amplified by bootstrapping. Existing regularization and local-generalization methods control either the admissible OOD region or the influence of generalized targets, often through separate mechanisms. We propose Convex Hull Neighborhood Smooth Dual Generalization (CSDG), which expresses the Bellman backup as an in-sample value target plus a CHN-local correction. This formulation makes the generalized contribution explicit and separates it from the in-sample reference path. The correction is obtained by smoothing in-sample-oriented and OOD-oriented candidates sampled at different perturbation radii. A mixture coefficient lambda scales its contribution to each backup, while the recursive discount remains gamma. Under boundedness and fixed perturbation kernels, we derive an exact one-step correction identity, a time-varying iterate bound, and a fixed-point bound that depends only on the branch discrepancy at the fixed point. We further characterize the implicit policies induced by the idealized operators and give a conditional non-degradation criterion. The practical algorithm approximates these quantities using asymmetric bounded noise and expectile regression, without exact support classification or an additional pessimistic OOD penalty. Experiments on Gym-MuJoCo and AntMaze show strong aggregate performance and stable value estimation. Code is available at: https://github.com/YOUNG-fnxm/CSDG
Cross-domain offline reinforcement learning (CDRL) aims to improve policy learning in a target domain by leveraging data collected from a source domain. Existing works typically assess the transferability of source-domain data by measuring its similarity to target-domain transitions, and implicitly perform transition-level selection. Transitions that are considered similar are assigned higher weights or rewards, while dissimilar ones are down-weighted. However, transition-level similarity does not necessarily imply consistency in long-term returns. Even visually or dynamically similar transitions may lead to significantly different outcomes in the target domain, which can mislead policy learning and degrade performance. To address this issue, we revisit the fundamental objective of policy learning. Since policy optimization ultimately relies on Bellman targets to evaluate the quality of decisions, we propose to assess the transferability of source-domain transitions based on their alignment with target-domain Bellman targets, rather than superficial transition similarity. Based on this insight, we propose a method termed Target-Aligned Bellman Backup (TABB), which selectively leverages source-domain data by measuring their contribution to accurate Bellman target estimation in the target domain. We evaluate TABB across a broad range of cross-domain offline RL settings with highly limited target-domain data. Experimental results show that TABB consistently achieves strong performance.
