Information-theoretic Model Identification and Policy Search using Physics Engines with Application to Robotic Manipulation
Shaojun Zhu, Andrew Kimmel, Abdeslam Boularias
We consider the problem of a robot learning the mechanical properties of objects through physical interaction with the object, and introduce a practical, data-efficient approach fo…
