Retriever: Composing Closed-Loop Asynchronous Robot Programs

Linfeng Zhao, Haojie Huang, Jiayuan Mao, Weiyu Liu, Mykel Kochenderfer, Lawson L. S. Wong

Building long-horizon robot agents requires composing closed-loop pipelines -- perception, belief update, planning, and control -- whose components run at different clocks and with variable latency. Today, these systems are often assembled with ad-hoc concurrency and pub/sub conv…

RENEW: Towards Learning World Models and Repairing Model Exploitation from Preferences

Logan Mondal Bhamidipaty, Mykel Kochenderfer, Subramanian Ramamoorthy

World models are widely used in offline reinforcement learning (RL) to improve sample efficiency and generate experience beyond a fixed dataset. However, they are vulnerable to model exploitation where data coverage is thin. Prior work addresses this either by collecting more exp…
