Dexterous Robotic Manipulation using Deep Reinforcement Learning and Knowledge Transfer for Complex Sparse Reward-based Tasks

1 code implementation19 May 2022 Qiang Wang, Francisco Roldan Sanchez, Robert McCarthy, David Cordova Bulens, Kevin McGuinness, Noel O'Connor, Manuel Wüthrich, Felix Widmaier, Stefan Bauer, Stephen J. Redmond

Here we extend this method, by modifying the task of Phase 1 of the RRC to require the robot to maintain the cube in a particular orientation, while the cube is moved along the required positional trajectory.
