EXIMO: VLM Guided Exploration of VLA Policies

Bhavya Sukhija, Oliver Groth, Mohit Shridhar +5

How to efficiently finetune robot policies to learn new tasks on the fly? State of the art robotic manipulation policies are based on behaviour cloning of large vision-language-act…

Gemini Robotics 1.5: Pushing the Frontier of Generalist Robots with Advanced Embodied Reasoning, Thinking, and Motion Transfer

Gemini Robotics Team, Abbas Abdolmaleki, Saminda Abeyruwan +169

General-purpose robots need a deep understanding of the physical world, advanced reasoning, and general and dexterous control. This report introduces the latest generation of the G…

Value from Observations: Towards Large-Scale Imitation Learning via Self-Improvement

Michael Bloesch, Markus Wulfmeier, Philemon Brakel +8

Imitation Learning from Observation (IfO) offers a powerful way to learn behaviors at large-scale: Unlike behavior cloning or offline reinforcement learning, IfO can leverage actio…

Learning from negative feedback, or positive feedback or both

Abbas Abdolmaleki, Bilal Piot, Bobak Shahriari +9

Existing preference optimization methods often assume scenarios where paired preference feedback (preferred/positive vs. dis-preferred/negative examples) is available. This require…

Imitating Language via Scalable Inverse Reinforcement Learning

Markus Wulfmeier, Michael Bloesch, Nino Vieillard +13

The majority of language model training builds on imitation learning. It covers pretraining, supervised fine-tuning, and affects the starting conditions for reinforcement learning…

Offline Actor-Critic Reinforcement Learning Scales to Large Models

Jost Tobias Springenberg, Abbas Abdolmaleki, Jingwei Zhang +9

We show that offline actor-critic reinforcement learning can scale to large models - such as transformers - and follows similar scaling laws as supervised learning. We find that of…

Mastering Stacking of Diverse Shapes with Large-Scale Iterative Reinforcement Learning on Real Robots

Thomas Lampe, Abbas Abdolmaleki, Sarah Bechtle +12

Reinforcement learning solely from an agent's self-generated data is often believed to be infeasible for learning on real robots, due to the amount of data needed. However, if done…

Learning Agile Soccer Skills for a Bipedal Robot with Deep Reinforcement Learning

Tuomas Haarnoja, Ben Moran, Guy Lever +25

We investigate whether Deep Reinforcement Learning (Deep RL) is able to synthesize sophisticated and safe movement skills for a low-cost, miniature humanoid robot that can be compo…

Matching Features without Descriptors: Implicitly Matched Interest Points

Titus Cieslewski, Michael Bloesch, Davide Scaramuzza

The extraction and matching of interest points is a prerequisite for many geometric computer vision problems. Traditionally, matching has been achieved by assigning descriptors to…
