Swarm navigation at 20 m/s with no communication, no state estimation, & on a $21 computer? .This paper combines deep learning + differentiable sim for zero-shot sim-to-real flight. It is an underrated breakthrough. Paper: #naturemachineintelligence

Very insightful talk. I am sure many of the findings are also related to robotics. For example, the idea of knowledge storage and extraction is akin to robot skills learning and task adaptation. Then, what is the universal law for robot pertaining and fine-tuning?.

Replay Buffer is a key component in off-policy training. Do you know that you can also used past experiences to design an Initial State Buffer, through self supervised learning. It can dramatically improve exploration!.

Check out our #ICRA2024 paper "Contrastive Initial State Buffer for Reinforcement Learning," which tackles the sample inefficiency in #ReinforcementLearning head-on. Code released! We introduce an approach agnostic to the underlying RL algorithm: the Contrastive Initial State

There are certain golas you cannot achieve, no matter how hard you try. Turns out that you are just optimizing the wrong optimization objective.
