Scaling Robot Learning with Offline Data
In recent years, machine learning has achieved remarkable success in various domains, including natural language generation, code synthesis, and photo-realistic image generation, owing to the utilization of high capacity networks and large diverse offline data. Mirroring this trend, robotics is increasingly embracing large-scale datasets and high-capacity networks to advance learning capabilities. In this talk, I will present my recent research on strategies for scaling robot learning with offline data and highlighting key findings and implications for the field.
