From Motor Control to Team Play in Simulated Humanoid Football

1 code implementation25 May 2021 SiQi Liu, Guy Lever, Zhe Wang, Josh Merel, S. M. Ali Eslami, Daniel Hennes, Wojciech M. Czarnecki, Yuval Tassa, Shayegan Omidshafiei, Abbas Abdolmaleki, Noah Y. Siegel, Leonard Hasenclever, Luke Marris, Saran Tunyasuvunakool, H. Francis Song, Markus Wulfmeier, Paul Muller, Tuomas Haarnoja, Brendan D. Tracey, Karl Tuyls, Thore Graepel, Nicolas Heess

In a sequence of stages, players first learn to control a fully articulated body to perform realistic, human-like movements such as running and turning; they then acquire mid-level football skills such as dribbling and shooting; finally, they develop awareness of others and play as a team, bridging the gap between low-level motor control at a timescale of milliseconds, and coordinated goal-directed behaviour as a team at the timescale of tens of seconds.

Discovering Reinforcement Learning Algorithms

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2020 Junhyuk Oh, Matteo Hessel, Wojciech M. Czarnecki, Zhongwen Xu, Hado van Hasselt, Satinder Singh, David Silver

Automating the discovery of update rules from data could lead to more efficient algorithms, or algorithms that are better adapted to specific environments.

Perception-Prediction-Reaction Agents for Deep Reinforcement Learning

no code implementations26 Jun 2020 Adam Stooke, Valentin Dalibard, Siddhant M. Jayakumar, Wojciech M. Czarnecki, Max Jaderberg

We employ a temporal hierarchy, using a slow-ticking recurrent core to allow information to flow more easily over long time spans, and three fast-ticking recurrent cores with connections designed to create an information asymmetry.

Navigating the Landscape of Multiplayer Games

no code implementations4 May 2020 Shayegan Omidshafiei, Karl Tuyls, Wojciech M. Czarnecki, Francisco C. Santos, Mark Rowland, Jerome Connor, Daniel Hennes, Paul Muller, Julien Perolat, Bart De Vylder, Audrunas Gruslys, Remi Munos

Multiplayer games have long been used as testbeds in artificial intelligence research, aptly referred to as the Drosophila of artificial intelligence.

Multiplicative Interactions and Where to Find Them

no code implementations ICLR 2020 Siddhant M. Jayakumar, Wojciech M. Czarnecki, Jacob Menick, Jonathan Schwarz, Jack Rae, Simon Osindero, Yee Whye Teh, Tim Harley, Razvan Pascanu

We explore the role of multiplicative interaction as a unifying framework to describe a range of classical and modern neural network architectural motifs, such as gating, attention layers, hypernetworks, and dynamic convolutions amongst others.

α-Rank: Multi-Agent Evaluation by Evolution

1 code implementation4 Mar 2019 Shayegan Omidshafiei, Christos Papadimitriou, Georgios Piliouras, Karl Tuyls, Mark Rowland, Jean-Baptiste Lespiau, Wojciech M. Czarnecki, Marc Lanctot, Julien Perolat, Remi Munos

We introduce {\alpha}-Rank, a principled evolutionary dynamics methodology, for the evaluation and ranking of agents in large-scale multi-agent interactions, grounded in a novel dynamical game-theoretic solution concept called Markov-Conley chains (MCCs).

Open-ended Learning in Symmetric Zero-sum Games

no code implementations23 Jan 2019 David Balduzzi, Marta Garnelo, Yoram Bachrach, Wojciech M. Czarnecki, Julien Perolat, Max Jaderberg, Thore Graepel

Zero-sum games such as chess and poker are, abstractly, functions that evaluate pairs of agents, for example labeling them `winner' and `loser'.

Adapting Auxiliary Losses Using Gradient Similarity

1 code implementation5 Dec 2018 Yunshu Du, Wojciech M. Czarnecki, Siddhant M. Jayakumar, Mehrdad Farajtabar, Razvan Pascanu, Balaji Lakshminarayanan

One approach to deal with the statistical inefficiency of neural networks is to rely on auxiliary losses that help to build useful representations.

Progress & Compress: A scalable framework for continual learning

no code implementations ICML 2018 Jonathan Schwarz, Jelena Luketina, Wojciech M. Czarnecki, Agnieszka Grabska-Barwinska, Yee Whye Teh, Razvan Pascanu, Raia Hadsell

This is achieved by training a network with two components: A knowledge base, capable of solving previously encountered problems, which is connected to an active column that is employed to efficiently learn the current task.

Kickstarting Deep Reinforcement Learning

no code implementations10 Mar 2018 Simon Schmitt, Jonathan J. Hudson, Augustin Zidek, Simon Osindero, Carl Doersch, Wojciech M. Czarnecki, Joel Z. Leibo, Heinrich Kuttler, Andrew Zisserman, Karen Simonyan, S. M. Ali Eslami

Our method places no constraints on the architecture of the teacher or student agents, and it regulates itself to allow the students to surpass their teachers in performance.

Population Based Training of Neural Networks

9 code implementations27 Nov 2017 Max Jaderberg, Valentin Dalibard, Simon Osindero, Wojciech M. Czarnecki, Jeff Donahue, Ali Razavi, Oriol Vinyals, Tim Green, Iain Dunning, Karen Simonyan, Chrisantha Fernando, Koray Kavukcuoglu

Neural networks dominate the modern machine learning landscape, but their training and success still suffer from sensitivity to empirical choices of hyperparameters such as model architecture, loss function, and optimisation algorithm.
