Using Keyframing To Guide Robots’ Movements

0

Keyframing is a technique used in animation to start the start and end points of an action and have the computer fill the in-between frames. Disney Researchers have now come up with RobotKeyframing, which is a new way to control legged robots. To guide the robot’s learning process, the framework uses a multi-critic reinforcement learning algorithm for balanced handling both dense and sparse rewards.
