392253 ISY Project: Robotic In-hand Manipulation of Objects in Simulated Environments (Pj) (SoSe 2021)

Contents, comment

In the project, you will work with robot models in simulated environments, e.g. [1, 2, 3, 4], and build a controller for manipulation of objects using general-purpose deep reinforcement learning algorithms [5], modern neural network architectures and classic approaches. You will experiment with adding touch sensors [6] to the hand and explore generalization of learned policies over different objects with and without tactile information.

Student information

The binding module descriptions contain further information, including specifications on the "types of assignments" students need to complete. In cases where a module description mentions more than one kind of assignment, the respective member of the teaching staff will decide which task(s) they assign the students.
