Slide 64: A whole tonne of stuff going on in robotics right now. Just take a look at Boston Dynamics YT channel for some mind bloding research, most of which is driven by ML..
I highly doubt that BD is doing any ML work right now ... Can the author link to specific research that they are doing using ML?
- fnl 9y agoA bit extreme, but yes, saying that robotics is driven my ML is ... weird.
- natch 9y agoYou mean public work perhaps? I imagine they are doing a lot with vision, gait learning, object manipulation, task planning, autonomy, multi-robot coordination, etc. all of which can be enabled by or at least helped along by machine learning, no? Your request for links is valid, I just am surprised anyone would doubt that they are doing ML research unless you are thinking of a strangely narrow definition of ML.
- fnl 9y agoMost of robotics is about reinforcement learning. EDIT: Oh, and expert systems/rules. Lots of em. EDIT2: Well, an engineering, obviously... :-) Heck, just check Wikipedia on the topic...
- natch 9y ago>Most of robotics is about reinforcement learning. is != always will be. But forget that, let's check Wikipedia, as you suggest. What are the first few words of the article on Reinforcement Learning, hmm. The very first few words at the very beginning of the article: "Reinforcement learning (RL) is an area of machine learning..." Read that and tell me what the last two words are. "Machine learning."
- iamwil 9y agoAs I remember, they don't use any deep learning ML. I think their stuff is based on something about funnels.
- iamwil 9y agoFor those interested, I saw the funnel stuff here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7enj1FGoYwg&feature=youtu.be&t=14m20s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7enj1FGoYwg&feature=youtu.be...
