Robot control policies learned in simulation do not often transfer well to the real world. Many existing solutions to this sim-to-real problem, such as the Grounded Action Transformation (GAT) algorithm, seek to correct for- or ground-these differences by matching the simulator to the real world. However, the efficacy of these approaches is limited if they do not explicitly account for stochastici...
