Optimizing Complex Control Systems with Differentiable Simulators: A Hybrid Approach to Reinforcement Learning and Trajectory Planning

ICRA 2025

Deep reinforcement learning (RL) often relies on simulators as abstract oracles to model interactions within complex environments. While differentiable simulators have recently emerged for multi-body robotic systems, they remain underutilized, despite their potential to provide richer information. T

Learning incipient slip with GelSight sensors: Attention Classification with Video Vision Transformers

IROS 2024

An important aspect of robotic grasping is the ability to detect incipient slip based on real-time information through tactile sensors. In this paper, we propose to use Video Vision Transformers to detect the onset of slip in grasping scenarios. The dynamic nature of slip makes Video Vision Transfor

Value learning from trajectory optimization and Sobolev descent: A step toward reinforcement learning with superlinear convergence properties

ICRA 2022poster

The recent successes in deep reinforcement learning largely rely on the capabilities of generating masses of data, which in turn implies the use of a simulator. In particular, current progress in multi body dynamic simulators are under-pinning the implementation of reinforcement learning for end-to-…
