Comparison of Distal Teacher Learning with Numerical and Analytical Methods to Solve Inverse Kinematics for Rigid-Body Mechanisms

1 code implementation29 Feb 2020 Tim von Oehsen, Alexander Fabisch, Shivesh Kumar, Frank Kirchner

We argue that for rigid-body kinematics one of the first proposed machine learning (ML) solutions to inverse kinematics -- distal teaching (DT) -- is actually good enough when combined with differentiable programming libraries and we provide an extensive evaluation and comparison to analytical and numerical solutions.

A Survey of Behavior Learning Applications in Robotics -- State of the Art and Perspectives

no code implementations5 Jun 2019 Alexander Fabisch, Christoph Petzoldt, Marc Otto, Frank Kirchner

Furthermore, we will give an outlook on problems that are challenging today but might be solved by machine learning in the future and argue that classical robotics and other approaches from artificial intelligence should be integrated more with machine learning to form complete, autonomous systems.

Empirical Evaluation of Contextual Policy Search with a Comparison-based Surrogate Model and Active Covariance Matrix Adaptation

no code implementations26 Oct 2018 Alexander Fabisch

Contextual policy search (CPS) is a class of multi-task reinforcement learning algorithms that is particularly useful for robotic applications.
