At #ICLR2022 we're presenting a new hybrid approach towards the TSP, that converges to optimal solutions, faster. Check it out: arxiv.org/abs/2110.05291

Credit assignment among agents is really hard when you only get a global reward. In a new learning paradigm, agents use a #GNN to communicate key information that allocates appropriate credit, and promotes cooperative behavior: arxiv.org/abs/2205.13005

Too often, we focus on fixing the robot instead of the environment that it operates in. In this new paper, we do the latter, and show that subtle modifications to the robots’ surroundings make a real difference: arxiv.org/abs/2209.11279

This week at #ICLR2023, we are presenting POPGym, a comprehensive collection of partially observable RL problems and baseline models. Using POPGym, we execute a comparison across RL memory models 👇 arxiv.org/abs/2303.01859 github.com/proroklab/popg…

We're thinking about the benefits of diversity in multi-robot systems... Here's a cool movie that describes what heterogeneity can do for cooperative tasks: youtu.be/J81IVQEy-zw #HeterogeneousMARL #Robotics #GraphNeuralNetworks

We have a Postdoc opening! Do you have deep learning skills and hands-on robot experience? Apply here to join our lab: jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/43030/

That is a good point and I was thinking something similar. Vision/Robotics/AI research is very much stuck in a groupthink bubble right now.

Still a few days left to apply! If you're into robot learning, and like stuff that flies, check out our postdoc opportunity here at Cambridge: jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/43030/ Cambridge Computer Science

It was such a pleasure to visit Imperial again, thanks to Edward Johns for being a fabulous host, and thanks to the Imperial students for the vibrant Q&A after the session!
