Choose Wisely: Data-driven Predictive Control for Nonlinear Systems Using Online Data Selection
Joshua Näf, Keith Moffat, Jaap Eising +1
This paper proposes Select-Data-driven Predictive Control (Select-DPC), a new method for controlling nonlinear systems using output-feedback for which data are available but an exp…
TARC: Time-Adaptive Robotic Control
Arnav Sukhija, Lenart Treven, Jin Cheng +3
Fixed-frequency control in robotics imposes a trade-off between the efficiency of low-frequency control and the robustness of high-frequency control, a limitation not seen in adapt…
Simulation Priors for Data-Efficient Deep Learning
Lenart Treven, Bhavya Sukhija, Jonas Rothfuss +3
How do we enable AI systems to efficiently learn in the real-world? First-principles models are widely used to simulate natural systems, but often fail to capture real-world comple…
NeoRL: Efficient Exploration for Nonepisodic RL
Bhavya Sukhija, Lenart Treven, Florian Dörfler +2
We study the problem of nonepisodic reinforcement learning (RL) for nonlinear dynamical systems, where the system dynamics are unknown and the RL agent has to learn from a single t…
Bridging the Sim-to-Real Gap with Bayesian Inference
Jonas Rothfuss, Bhavya Sukhija, Lenart Treven +3
We present SIM-FSVGD for learning robot dynamics from data. As opposed to traditional methods, SIM-FSVGD leverages low-fidelity physical priors, e.g., in the form of simulators, to…
