Exploring the effects of robotic design on learning and neural control
Joshua Paul Powers
The ongoing deep learning revolution has allowed computers to outclass humans in various games and perceive features imperceptible to humans during classification tasks. Current ma…
A good body is all you need: avoiding catastrophic interference via agent architecture search
Joshua Powers, Ryan Grindle, Lapo Frati +1
In robotics, catastrophic interference continues to restrain policy training across environments. Efforts to combat catastrophic interference to date focus on novel neural architec…
A soft robot that adapts to environments through shape change
Dylan S. Shah, Joshua P. Powers, Liana G. Tilton +3
Many organisms, including various species of spiders and caterpillars, change their shape to switch gaits and adapt to different environments. Recent technological advances, rangin…
Embodiment dictates learnability in neural controllers
Joshua Powers, Ryan Grindle, Sam Kriegman +3
Catastrophic forgetting continues to severely restrict the learnability of controllers suitable for multiple task environments. Efforts to combat catastrophic forgetting reported i…
