I have to do an UML class diagram for a project in which I implement an interface with abstract methods for RL algorithms. I implement several algorithms that implement an interface but implement additional methods depending on the algorithm. How can I capture that in an UML diagram?

Your case is a classic case of interface realization, as you'll find for example in a
