Robotics+AI (Part 3) Exploration: Beyond Training Sets

We look at how Robotics+AI developers precipitate new learning by (a) pushing into real-world testing; (b) interactive complex tasking simulations for embodied agents; (c) live testing environments to test robot design limits. Scenario 1: Tesla tests its autopilot cars in the real-world’s infinite variables – though sometimes with tragic consequences.  (See my previous post) Scenario…

Robotics+AI (Part 1) Benchmarking: TDW Platform

Benchmarking is Part 1 of 4 in a series on Robotics+AI : recent developments, and the surprising realities we grapple with. The ThreeDWorld platform gives Robotics+AI developers a standardized virtual environment for training, benchmarking, and testing. Why needed: Duplicating the exact dynamics of the physical world is extremely difficult Safety and expense practicalities when training…
