The Smart Buildings Challenge: Learning Foundation Models for Real-World Optimization at Scale
Judah Goldfeder, Ayush Rai, Philippe M. Wyder +11
Buildings cause nearly 40\% of carbon emissions in the US. Of total building emissions, HVAC systems are responsible for approximately 40-60\% and account for 15\% of global energy…
The Smart Buildings Control Suite: A Diverse Open Source Benchmark to Evaluate and Scale HVAC Control Policies for Sustainability
Judah Goldfeder, Victoria Dean, Zixin Jiang +4
Commercial buildings account for 17% of U.S. carbon emissions, with roughly half of that from Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC). HVAC devices form a complex thermod…
Hearing Touch: Audio-Visual Pretraining for Contact-Rich Manipulation
Jared Mejia, Victoria Dean, Tess Hellebrekers +1
Although pre-training on a large amount of data is beneficial for robot learning, current paradigms only perform large-scale pretraining for visual representations, whereas represe…
Train Offline, Test Online: A Real Robot Learning Benchmark
Gaoyue Zhou, Victoria Dean, Mohan Kumar Srirama +9
Three challenges limit the progress of robot learning research: robots are expensive (few labs can participate), everyone uses different robots (findings do not generalize across l…
Interesting Object, Curious Agent: Learning Task-Agnostic Exploration
Simone Parisi, Victoria Dean, Deepak Pathak +1
Common approaches for task-agnostic exploration learn tabula-rasa --the agent assumes isolated environments and no prior knowledge or experience. However, in the real world, agents…
See, Hear, Explore: Curiosity via Audio-Visual Association
Victoria Dean, Shubham Tulsiani, Abhinav Gupta
Exploration is one of the core challenges in reinforcement learning. A common formulation of curiosity-driven exploration uses the difference between the real future and the future…
