Task: Summarization
Input (English): Genetic algorithms have been widely used in many practical optimization problems.
 Inspired by natural selection, operators, including mutation, crossover
 and selection, provide effective heuristics for search and black-box optimization.
 However, they have not been shown useful for deep reinforcement learning, possibly
 due to the catastrophic consequence of parameter crossovers of neural networks.
 Here, we present Genetic Policy Optimization (GPO), a new genetic algorithm
 for sample-efficient deep policy optimization. GPO uses imitation learning
 for policy crossover in the state space and applies policy gradient methods for mutation.
 Our experiments on MuJoCo tasks show that GPO as a genetic algorithm
 is able to provide superior performance over the state-of-the-art policy gradient
 methods and achieves comparable or higher sample efficiency.
Output (English): This paper proposes a genetic algorithm inspired policy optimization method, which mimics the mutation and the crossover operators over policy networks.
