Information-theoretic Model Identification and Policy Search using Physics Engines with Application to Robotic Manipulation

no code implementations22 Mar 2017 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 for identifying the motion models of these objects.
