DemoStart: Demonstration-led auto-curriculum applied to sim-to-real with multi-fingered robots
Maria Bauza, Jose Enrique Chen, Valentin Dalibard +13
We present DemoStart, a novel auto-curriculum reinforcement learning method capable of learning complex manipulation behaviors on an arm equipped with a three-fingered robotic hand…
Learning Robot Soccer from Egocentric Vision with Deep Reinforcement Learning
Dhruva Tirumala, Markus Wulfmeier, Ben Moran +13
We apply multi-agent deep reinforcement learning (RL) to train end-to-end robot soccer policies with fully onboard computation and sensing via egocentric RGB vision. This setting r…
NeRF2Real: Sim2real Transfer of Vision-guided Bipedal Motion Skills using Neural Radiance Fields
Arunkumar Byravan, Jan Humplik, Leonard Hasenclever +8
We present a system for applying sim2real approaches to "in the wild" scenes with realistic visuals, and to policies which rely on active perception using RGB cameras. Given a shor…
Imitate and Repurpose: Learning Reusable Robot Movement Skills From Human and Animal Behaviors
Steven Bohez, Saran Tunyasuvunakool, Philemon Brakel +18
We investigate the use of prior knowledge of human and animal movement to learn reusable locomotion skills for real legged robots. Our approach builds upon previous work on imitati…
Learning Coordinated Terrain-Adaptive Locomotion by Imitating a Centroidal Dynamics Planner
Philemon Brakel, Steven Bohez, Leonard Hasenclever +2
Dynamic quadruped locomotion over challenging terrains with precise foot placements is a hard problem for both optimal control methods and Reinforcement Learning (RL). Non-linear s…
Evaluating model-based planning and planner amortization for continuous control
Arunkumar Byravan, Leonard Hasenclever, Piotr Trochim +8
There is a widespread intuition that model-based control methods should be able to surpass the data efficiency of model-free approaches. In this paper we attempt to evaluate this i…
