Transfer of policies based on trajectory libraries

摘要

Libraries of trajectories are a promising way of creating policies for difficult problems. However, often it is not desirable or even possible to create a new library for every task. We present a method for transferring libraries across tasks, which allows us to build libraries by learning from demonstration on one task and apply them to similar tasks. Representing the libraries in a feature-based space is key to supporting transfer. We also search through the library to ensure a complete path to the goal is possible. Results are shown for the Little Dog task. Little Dog is a quadruped robot that has to walk across rough terrain at reasonably fast speeds.
