Unsupervised Real-Time Control through Variational Empowerment
Maximilian Karl, Maximilian Soelch, Philip Becker-Ehmck +3
We introduce a methodology for efficiently computing a lower bound to empowerment, allowing it to be used as an unsupervised cost function for policy learning in real-time control.…
Unsupervised preprocessing for Tactile Data
Maximilian Karl, Justin Bayer, Patrick van der Smagt
Tactile information is important for gripping, stable grasp, and in-hand manipulation, yet the complexity of tactile data prevents widespread use of such sensors. We make use of an…
ML-based tactile sensor calibration: A universal approach
Maximilian Karl, Artur Lohrer, Dhananjay Shah +5
We study the responses of two tactile sensors, the fingertip sensor from the iCub and the BioTac under different external stimuli. The question of interest is to which degree both…
Theano: A Python framework for fast computation of mathematical expressions
The Theano Development Team, Rami Al-Rfou, Guillaume Alain +110
Theano is a Python library that allows to define, optimize, and evaluate mathematical expressions involving multi-dimensional arrays efficiently. Since its introduction, it has bee…
Unsupervised Feature Learning for low-level Local Image Descriptors
Christian Osendorfer, Justin Bayer, Sebastian Urban +1
Unsupervised feature learning has shown impressive results for a wide range of input modalities, in particular for object classification tasks in computer vision. Using a large amo…
