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…
Learning Dynamics Models for Model Predictive Agents
Michael Lutter, Leonard Hasenclever, Arunkumar Byravan +5
Model-Based Reinforcement Learning involves learning a \textit{dynamics model} from data, and then using this model to optimise behaviour, most often with an online \textit{planner…
From Motor Control to Team Play in Simulated Humanoid Football
Siqi Liu, Guy Lever, Zhe Wang +19
Intelligent behaviour in the physical world exhibits structure at multiple spatial and temporal scales. Although movements are ultimately executed at the level of instantaneous mus…
Local Search for Policy Iteration in Continuous Control
Jost Tobias Springenberg, Nicolas Heess, Daniel Mankowitz +10
We present an algorithm for local, regularized, policy improvement in reinforcement learning (RL) that allows us to formulate model-based and model-free variants in a single framew…
dm_control: Software and Tasks for Continuous Control
Yuval Tassa, Saran Tunyasuvunakool, Alistair Muldal +8
The dm_control software package is a collection of Python libraries and task suites for reinforcement learning agents in an articulated-body simulation. A MuJoCo wrapper provides c…
Deep neuroethology of a virtual rodent
Josh Merel, Diego Aldarondo, Jesse Marshall +3
Parallel developments in neuroscience and deep learning have led to mutually productive exchanges, pushing our understanding of real and artificial neural networks in sensory and c…
