Context is Everything: Implicit Identification for Dynamics Adaptation

Ben Evans,Abitha Thankaraj,Lerrel Pinto,Ben Evans,Abitha Thankaraj,Lerrel Pinto

Understanding environment dynamics is necessary for robots to act safely and optimally in the world. In realistic scenarios, dynamics are non-stationary and the causal variables such as environment parameters cannot necessarily be precisely measured or inferred, even during training. We propose Implicit Identification for Dynamics Adaptation (IIDA), a simple method to allow predictive models to ad...
