EPCC: teach slow, play fast, and the robot beats its demos' speed

Imitation policies inherit the slow, careful pace of human demos on contact-sensitive tasks. EPCC (Expert-Play Contouring Control) pairs slow expert demos, which trace task progress in a world model's latent space, with fast play data that need not su...

Imitation policies inherit the slow, careful pace of human demos on contact-sensitive tasks. EPCC (Expert-Play Contouring Control) pairs slow expert demos, which trace task progress in a world model's latent space, with fast play data that need not succeed, and drives along that trace with a planner borrowed from...
