Ever wondered how to combine model free RL and LfD for a gentle, sample efficient robot learning in real time on contact-rich manipulation tasks? Excited to finally get to share Residual LfD arxiv.org/pdf/2008.07682…, a project I started during the AI residency at X, The Moonshot Factory 1/4








I finally got around to finishing a post about our (Mkhuseli et. al) intersectional bias detection and remediation work, with some reminiscing about where it started (with Vukosi Marivate 🇿🇦🚀📊 and Nyalleng Moorosi) and why it didn't go as far as I'd liked. michaelburke.co.za/wp/portfolio/o…

Action sequencing using visual permutations - to appear in RA-L/ ICRA 2021. arxiv.org/abs/2008.01156 Under lockdown last year, S Ramamoorthy and Kartic Subr and I decided to revisit some early AI history at Edinburgh, and look at discrete planning problems like connectionists.




Looking forward to attending IEEE ICRA where we'll present work with Artūras Straižys & Michael Burke on LfD for soft tissue manipulation - an essential primitive for medical robotics.
