The authors define a framework for testing whether logical control tasks in unknown environments can be transformed using samples while preserving policy guarantees. They show how to simulate such reductions without access to transition probabilities and analyze reward-based representations. Their main result is that no PAC-MDP algorithm covers the class of safety specifications, demonstrated with one fixed safety formula.
