Quality-Diversity Optimisation on a Physical Robot Through Dynamics-Aware and Reset-Free Learning

no code implementations24 Apr 2023 Simón C. Smith, Bryan Lim, Hannah Janmohamed, Antoine Cully

This method uses a dynamics model, learned from interactions between the robot and the environment, to predict the robot's behaviour and improve sample efficiency.

Online Damage Recovery for Physical Robots with Hierarchical Quality-Diversity

no code implementations18 Oct 2022 Maxime Allard, Simón C. Smith, Konstantinos Chatzilygeroudis, Bryan Lim, Antoine Cully

Quality-Diversity (QD) algorithms have been successfully used to make robots adapt to damages in seconds by leveraging a diverse set of learned skills.

Hierarchical Quality-Diversity for Online Damage Recovery

1 code implementation12 Apr 2022 Maxime Allard, Simón C. Smith, Konstantinos Chatzilygeroudis, Antoine Cully

These adaptation capabilities are directly linked to the behavioural diversity in the repertoire.

Attainment Regions in Feature-Parameter Space for High-Level Debugging in Autonomous Robots

no code implementations6 Aug 2021 Simón C. Smith, Subramanian Ramamoorthy

When the robot successfully executes the task, we use the attainment regions to gain insights into the limits of the controller, and its robustness.

Semi-supervised Learning From Demonstration Through Program Synthesis: An Inspection Robot Case Study

no code implementations23 Jul 2020 Simón C. Smith, Subramanian Ramamoorthy

The system induces a controller program by learning from immersive demonstrations using sequential importance sampling.

Expanding the Active Inference Landscape: More Intrinsic Motivations in the Perception-Action Loop

no code implementations21 Jun 2018 Martin Biehl, Christian Guckelsberger, Christoph Salge, Simón C. Smith, Daniel Polani

Research on intrinsic motivations may profit from an additional way to implement intrinsically motivated agents that also share the biological plausibility of active inference.
