Continual Robot Learning using Self-Supervised Task Inference

no code implementations10 Sep 2023 Muhammad Burhan Hafez, Stefan Wermter

Our approach learns action and intention embeddings from self-organization of the observed movement and effect parts of unlabeled demonstrations and a higher-level behavior embedding from self-organization of the joint action-intention embeddings.

Map-based Experience Replay: A Memory-Efficient Solution to Catastrophic Forgetting in Reinforcement Learning

1 code implementation3 May 2023 Muhammad Burhan Hafez, Tilman Immisch, Tom Weber, Stefan Wermter

Our approach organizes stored transitions into a concise environment-model-like network of state-nodes and transition-edges, merging similar samples to reduce the memory size and increase pair-wise distance among samples, which increases the relevancy of each sample.

Chat with the Environment: Interactive Multimodal Perception Using Large Language Models

1 code implementation14 Mar 2023 Xufeng Zhao, Mengdi Li, Cornelius Weber, Muhammad Burhan Hafez, Stefan Wermter

However, it remains challenging to ground LLMs in multimodal sensory input and continuous action output, while enabling a robot to interact with its environment and acquire novel information as its policies unfold.

Impact Makes a Sound and Sound Makes an Impact: Sound Guides Representations and Explorations

1 code implementation4 Aug 2022 Xufeng Zhao, Cornelius Weber, Muhammad Burhan Hafez, Stefan Wermter

Sound is one of the most informative and abundant modalities in the real world while being robust to sense without contacts by small and cheap sensors that can be placed on mobile devices.

Behavior Self-Organization Supports Task Inference for Continual Robot Learning

no code implementations9 Jul 2021 Muhammad Burhan Hafez, Stefan Wermter

Task inference is made by finding the nearest behavior embedding to a demonstrated behavior, which is used together with the environment state as input to a multi-task policy trained with reinforcement learning to optimize performance over tasks.

Improving Model-Based Reinforcement Learning with Internal State Representations through Self-Supervision

1 code implementation10 Feb 2021 Julien Scholz, Cornelius Weber, Muhammad Burhan Hafez, Stefan Wermter

Using a model of the environment, reinforcement learning agents can plan their future moves and achieve superhuman performance in board games like Chess, Shogi, and Go, while remaining relatively sample-efficient.

Improving Robot Dual-System Motor Learning with Intrinsically Motivated Meta-Control and Latent-Space Experience Imagination

1 code implementation19 Apr 2020 Muhammad Burhan Hafez, Cornelius Weber, Matthias Kerzel, Stefan Wermter

In this paper, we present a novel dual-system motor learning approach where a meta-controller arbitrates online between model-based and model-free decisions based on an estimate of the local reliability of the learned model.

Curious Meta-Controller: Adaptive Alternation between Model-Based and Model-Free Control in Deep Reinforcement Learning

no code implementations5 May 2019 Muhammad Burhan Hafez, Cornelius Weber, Matthias Kerzel, Stefan Wermter

Recent success in deep reinforcement learning for continuous control has been dominated by model-free approaches which, unlike model-based approaches, do not suffer from representational limitations in making assumptions about the world dynamics and model errors inevitable in complex domains.

Deep Intrinsically Motivated Continuous Actor-Critic for Efficient Robotic Visuomotor Skill Learning

no code implementations26 Oct 2018 Muhammad Burhan Hafez, Cornelius Weber, Matthias Kerzel, Stefan Wermter

In this paper, we present a new intrinsically motivated actor-critic algorithm for learning continuous motor skills directly from raw visual input.
