Tangent bundles of Quot schemes of vector bundles on curves
Ashima Bansal, Supravat Sarkar, Shivam Vats
For a vector bundle on a smooth projective curve , one defines the Quot scheme parametrizing subsheaves of having length torsion quotients. We describe…
Torelli theorems for Quot schemes of vector bundles on curves
Ashima Bansal, Supravat Sarkar, Shivam Vats
For a vector bundle on a smooth projective curve , one defines the Quot scheme parametrizing subsheaves of having length torsion quotients. If is a…
Deliberate Practice: Learning Robot Skills under a Budget
Shivam Vats, Sudarshan Harithas, Mete Tuluhan Akbulut +2
We consider the problem of autonomously learning robot skills under a limited practice budget for sequential tasks. We propose an active skill learning algorithm, \emph{Deliberate…
Positive Cones of Parabolic Grassmann Bundle over a curve
Ashima Bansal, Shivam Vats
In this article, we define the parabolic Grassmann bundle associated to a parabolic vector bundle over a smooth projective variety, generalizing the construction of parabolic proje…
When Life Gives You BC, Make Q-functions: Extracting Q-values from Behavior Cloning for On-Robot Reinforcement Learning
Lakshita Dodeja, Ondrej Biza, Shivam Vats +5
Behavior Cloning (BC) has emerged as a highly effective paradigm for robot learning. However, BC lacks a self-guided mechanism for online improvement after demonstrations have been…
Creative Robot Tool Use by Counterfactual Reasoning
M. Tuluhan Akbulut, Varun Satheesh, Ahmed Jaafar +5
We propose a causal reasoning framework for creative robot tool use where a suitable tool for a task is correctly identified for use beyond its primary objectives. The proposed fra…
Singularity of cubic hypersurfaces and hyperplane sections of projectivized tangent bundle of projective space
Ashima Bansal, Supravat Sarkar, Shivam Vats
We show that the normal points of a cubic hypersurface in projective space have canonical singularities unless the hypersurface is an iterated cone over an elliptic curve. As an ap…
