Bias correction techniques are used by most of the high-performing methods for off-policy reinforcement learning. However, these techniques rely on a pre-defined bias correction policy that is either not flexible enough or requires environment-specific tuning of hyperparameters. In this work, we present a simple data-driven approach for guiding bias correction. We demonstrate its effectiveness on the Truncated Quantile Critics -- a state-of-the-art continuous control algorithm. The proposed technique can adjust the bias correction across environments automatically. As a result, it eliminates the need for an extensive hyperparameter search, significantly reducing the actual number of interactions and computation.
