Overcoming the Sim-to-Real Gap: Leveraging Simulation to Learn to Explore for Real-World RL Andrew Wagenmaker

Neural Information Processing Systems

Such direct sim2real transfer is not guaranteed to succeed, however, and in cases where it fails, it is unclear how to best utilize the simulator. In this work, we show that in many regimes, while direct sim2real transfer may fail, we can utilize the simulator to learn a set of exploratory policies which enable efficient exploration in the real world.





Accelerating ERM for data-driven algorithm design using output-sensitive techniques

Neural Information Processing Systems

Data-driven algorithm design is a promising, learning-based approach for beyond worst-case analysis of algorithms with tunable parameters. An important open problem is the design of computationally efficient data-driven algorithms for combinatorial algorithm families with multiple parameters.
