In recent years, there has been increasing interest in using formal methods-based techniques to safely achieve temporal tasks, such as timed sequence of goals, or patrolling objectives. Such tasks are often expressed in real-time logics such as Signal Temporal Logic (STL), whereby, the logical speci
Apprenticeship learning crucially depends on effectively learning rewards, and hence control policies from user demonstrations. Of particular difficulty is the setting where the desired task consists of a number of sub-goals with temporal dependencies. The quality of inferred rewards and hence polic…
In the paradigm of robot learning-from-demonstra tions (LfD), understanding and evaluating the demonstrated behaviors plays a critical role in extracting control policies for robots. Without this knowledge, a robot may infer incorrect reward functions that lead to undesirable or unsafe control polic
Learning control policies that are safe, robust and interpretable are prominent challenges in developing robotic systems. Learning-from-demonstrations with formal logic is an arising paradigm in reinforcement learning to estimate rewards and extract robot control policies that seek to overcome these
Deep reinforcement learning has become a popular technique to train autonomous agents to learn control policies that enable them to accomplish complex tasks in uncertain environments. A key component of an RL algorithm is the definition of a reward function that maps each state and an action that ca…
