Our work introduces a geometrically-aware approach that brings motion planning into Bayesian goal inference—an early but promising direction.

🦾 By combining EPVFs with massive parallelism and careful regularization, we close the gap with state-of-the-art DRL in complex environments.

Very excited to present 🎉Eau De Q-Network🎉 on Thursday @rldmdublin2025.bsky.social Poster #28

🔍Eau De Q-Network gradually prunes the network weights at the agent's learning pace, ultimately reaching a final sparsity level that is discovered by the algorithm!🔎

We build on the efficient CrossQ DRL algorithm and combine it with two control architectures — Joint Target Prediction for agile maneuvers and Central Pattern Generators for stable, natural gaits — to train locomotion policies directly on the HoneyBadger quadruped robot from MAB Robotics.

⚡️ Do you think training robot locomotion needs large scale simulation? Think again!

We train an omnidirectional locomotion policy directly on a real quadruped in just a few minutes 🚀
Top speeds of 0.85 m/s, two different control approaches, indoor and outdoor experiments, and more! 🤖🏃‍♂️
