Deep Reinforcement Learning for Real-World Robotics

Seminar Abstract: OffWorld is developing a new generation of autonomous industrial robots to do the heavy lifting first on Earth, then on Moon, Mars and asteroids. We see reinforcement learning as one of major candidate technologies that could allow us to reach a high level of autonomy. While RL has achieved remarkable results in games […]
