Robotics manipulation to be specific :)

Hi Csaba :)

I also think many robot learning papers are overclaiming what they can do… the paper task setup can be very easy in comparison to real production systems even for pick-n-place… but it’s hard to see this difference in the presented videos (if any)

I feel like many works do have experiments on sim but they don’t seem to transfer to real life (not in terms of sim2real but applying the same algo). I wonder how much of it comes from delays or us being overprotective of the robot in real life. Maybe evals need to include these components.

I thought that was just me 😅 was trying it on an uncluttered single item picking task

Perhaps it’s “necessary” to have it as a baseline (arguably TD3 is just as important imo but SAC seems to be more commonly used), and it’s hard to convince people which one is stronger than SAC. I think recently there are few e.g. ACE at Neurips. Generally feels like a popularity game to me

Let me try, we’ve been very quiet historically 😂

Can I get added please :)

Please see me :)

Please add me, I’ve been doing robot learning with RL/IL!
