From Reinforcement Learning to Robot Learning: Leveraging Prior Data and Shared Evaluation
Abstract: Unlike most machine learning applications, robotics involves physical constraints that make off-the-shelf learning challenging. Difficulties in large-scale data collection and training present a major roadblock to applying today’s data-intensive algorithms. Robot learning has an additional roadblock in evaluation: every physical space is different, making results across labs inconsistent. Two common assumptions of the robot [...]

Building 4D Models of Objects and Scenes from Monocular Videos
Abstract: We explore how to infer the time-varying 3D structures of generic, deformable objects, and dynamic scenes from monocular videos. A solution to this problem is essential for virtual reality and robotics applications. However, inferring 4D structures given 2D observations is challenging due to its under-constrained nature. In a casual setup where there is neither [...]
