Abstract:
We present a method for humanoid robots to quickly learn new dynamic tasks from observing others and from practice. Ways in which the robot can adapt to initial and also changing conditions are described. Agents are given domain knowledge in the form of task primitives. A key element of our approach is to break learning problems up into as many simple learning problems as possible. We present a case study of a humanoid robot learning to play air hockey.
