Slightly belated life update: In April I started as a Research Scientist in the Atlas team at
@BostonDynamics
. Really excited to continue research in learning and manipulation with this amazing team and our shiny new humanoid!
Really excited to share that I successfully defended my PhD thesis at
@uwcse
earlier this month! My deepest gratitude to my committee and everyone who helped me along this 5 year journey!
Full version of our
@NeurIPSConf
2023 paper titled Adversarial Model for Offline Reinforcement Learning is now available on arxiv
Joint work with
@tengyangx
,
@nanjiang_cs
, Byron Boots and
@chinganc_rl
. Open source code coming soon!
Really excited to share work done during my
@GoogleDeepMind
internship. We introduce Box o' Flows, a benchtop control system for real-world fluid directed rigid body control and demonstrate how deep RL can be used to learn highly dynamic tasks directly on real hardware.
Reinforcement learning is most useful if a) demonstrations are hard to get and b) a system is hard to model.
( a) no imitation, b) no MPC etc)
Excited to share Mohak's internship report and the 'Box o Flows' enabling us to ask questions in this space!
Come over to the poster session 4 at
@l4dc_conf
today if you're interested in learning more about our work on controlling a complex fluid dynamical system with RL directly in the real world.
.
@l4dc_conf
is happening
@UniofOxford
this week!
Two fantastic papers coming up from our group
@GoogleDeepMind
in collaboration with
@MIT
!
First
@timseyde
continues the path of 'Q-learning is all you need' even for continuous control with 'Growing Q-Networks'
Excited to announce that our paper "Blending MPC and Value Function Approximation for Efficient Reinforcement Learning" recently got accepted to
#ICLR2021
!
Thanks to my co-authors Sanjiban Choudhary
@sanjibac
and Byron Boots for making this work possible.
Really excited to present our paper STORM: An Integrated Framework for Fast Joint Space MPC for Reactive Manipulation at
@corl_conf
! Checkout our oral talk on Thurs 10am GMT.
@airindiain
Will more flights be added from Delhi to USA, especially SFO? I have been trying to book from the website for many days but everything is unavailable so far.
A big thanks to my collaborators Jonas Buchli, Martin Riedmiller,
@m_wulfmeier
, Thomas Lampe, Michael Neunert, Francesco Romano, Abbas Abdolmaleki, Arunkumar Byravan and everyone else on the Controls team for their support.
