How do Offline Measures for Exploration in Reinforcement Learning behave?
Jakob J. Hollenstein, Sayantan Auddy, Matteo Saveriano +2
Sufficient exploration is paramount for the success of a reinforcement learning agent. Yet, exploration is rarely assessed in an algorithm-independent way. We compare the behavior…
Improving the Exploration of Deep Reinforcement Learning in Continuous Domains using Planning for Policy Search
Jakob J. Hollenstein, Erwan Renaudo, Matteo Saveriano +1
Local policy search is performed by most Deep Reinforcement Learning (D-RL) methods, which increases the risk of getting trapped in a local minimum. Furthermore, the availability o…
Coping with the variability in humans reward during simulated human-robot interactions through the coordination of multiple learning strategies
Rémi Dromnelle, Benoît Girard, Erwan Renaudo +2
An important current challenge in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) is to enable robots to learn on-the-fly from human feedback. However, humans show a great variability in the way the…
How to reduce computation time while sparing performance during robot navigation? A neuro-inspired architecture for autonomous shifting between model-based and model-free learning
Rémi Dromnelle, Erwan Renaudo, Guillaume Pourcel +3
Taking inspiration from how the brain coordinates multiple learning systems is an appealing strategy to endow robots with more flexibility. One of the expected advantages would be…
Action Representations in Robotics: A Taxonomy and Systematic Classification
Philipp Zech, Erwan Renaudo, Simon Haller +2
Understanding and defining the meaning of "action" is substantial for robotics research. This becomes utterly evident when aiming at equipping autonomous robots with robust manipul…
