Multi-bounce Drum Roll with Optimized Active Tricks to Leverage Soft Embodiment
Naoto Yamanaka, Takanori Jin, Taisuke Kobayashi
This paper presents a soft robotic drummer for accurate and efficient drum rolls. High-frequency drum rolls require the "multi-bounce technique," where a drumstick bounces multiple…
Redesigning Regularization for Effective Policy Smoothing
Taisuke Kobayashi, Naoto Yamanaka
This paper proposes a novel regularization design to effectively smooth policy functions in reinforcement learning. While regularization that enhances ``global'' Lipschitz continui…
Flexible Empowerment at Reasoning with Extended Best-of-N Sampling
Taisuke Kobayashi
This paper proposes a novel method that incorporates empowerment when reasoning actions in reinforcement learning (RL), thereby achieving the flexibility of exploration-exploitatio…
Skin-Machine Interface with Multimodal Contact Motion Classifier
Alberto Confente, Takanori Jin, Taisuke Kobayashi +2
This paper proposes a novel framework for utilizing skin sensors as a new operation interface of complex robots. The skin sensors employed in this study possess the capability to q…
CubeDAgger: Interactive Imitation Learning for Dynamic Systems with Efficient yet Low-risk Interaction
Taisuke Kobayashi
Interactive imitation learning makes an agent's control policy robust by stepwise supervisions from an expert. The recent algorithms mostly employ expert-agent switching systems to…
Revisiting Experience Replayable Conditions
Taisuke Kobayashi
Experience replay (ER) used in (deep) reinforcement learning is considered to be applicable only to off-policy algorithms. However, there have been some cases in which ER has been…
Towards Autonomous Driving of Personal Mobility with Small and Noisy Dataset using Tsallis-statistics-based Behavioral Cloning
Taisuke Kobayashi, Takahito Enomoto
Autonomous driving has made great progress and been introduced in practical use step by step. On the other hand, the concept of personal mobility is also getting popular, and its a…
