A perspective on fluid mechanical environments for challenges in reinforcement learning

Shruti Mishra, Michael Chang, Vamsi Spandan +1

We consider the challenge of developing agents that efficiently interact with high-dimensional, evolving environments, towards a view of practical reinforcement learning (RL) agent…

Im-Promptu: In-Context Composition from Image Prompts

Bhishma Dedhia, Michael Chang, Jake C. Snell +2

Large language models are few-shot learners that can solve diverse tasks from a handful of demonstrations. This implicit understanding of tasks suggests that the attention mechanis…

Neural Constraint Satisfaction: Hierarchical Abstraction for Combinatorial Generalization in Object Rearrangement

Michael Chang, Alyssa L. Dayan, Franziska Meier +3

Object rearrangement is a challenge for embodied agents because solving these tasks requires generalizing across a combinatorially large set of configurations of entities and their…

Human-Timescale Adaptation in an Open-Ended Task Space

Adaptive Agent Team, Jakob Bauer, Kate Baumli +25

Foundation models have shown impressive adaptation and scalability in supervised and self-supervised learning problems, but so far these successes have not fully translated to rein…

Object Representations as Fixed Points: Training Iterative Refinement Algorithms with Implicit Differentiation

Michael Chang, Thomas L. Griffiths, Sergey Levine

Iterative refinement -- start with a random guess, then iteratively improve the guess -- is a useful paradigm for representation learning because it offers a way to break symmetrie…

Modularity in Reinforcement Learning via Algorithmic Independence in Credit Assignment

Michael Chang, Sidhant Kaushik, Sergey Levine +1

Many transfer problems require re-using previously optimal decisions for solving new tasks, which suggests the need for learning algorithms that can modify the mechanisms for choos…
