Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has achieved remarkable success in various research domains. However, its reliance on neural networks results in a lack of transparency, which limits its practical applications. To achieve explainability, decision trees have emerged as a popular and promising alternative to neural networks. Nonetheless, due to their limited expressiveness, traditional decision trees struggle with high-dimensional long-horizon continuous control tasks. In this paper, we proposes SkillTree, a novel framework that reduces complex continuous action spaces into discrete skill spaces. Our hierarchical approach integrates a differentiable decision tree within the high-level policy to generate skill embeddings, which subsequently guide the low-level policy in executing skills. By making skill decisions explainable, we achieve skill-level explainability, enhancing the understanding of the decision-making process in complex tasks. Experimental results demonstrate that our method achieves performance comparable to skill-based neural networks in complex robotic arm control domains. Furthermore, SkillTree offers explanations at the skill level, thereby increasing the transparency of the decision-making process.
