MIT Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts, 2007 I can see that the lab is working also in implementing classical locomotion techniques for comparison and benchmarking. However, I did not see any comparison in Erwins (and co-authors) papers against these techniques (especially their last work on Learning to Walk via Deep RL that did not even compare against the previous work of the authors). During the last three days of the conference, the wifi was awfully bad. Elsevier RSS this year was in Freiburg, Germany during June 2226th.

There was also a noticeable amount of industry partners and collaborators. September The discussion was starring Emo Todorov who was positively criticizing the way research is being deal with. Not just the simulator itself, but also the state of the art techniques used in trajectory optimization are competing. In particular, the fact that his lab is working heavily on engineering, system identification and robotics research rather than just deep learning/RL in a perfectly simulated environment (that unfortunately most people are doing nowadays).

Lastly, I really hoped the organizers would have gathered some statistics about gender ratio, ethnicity ratio, etc. K. Strabala, M.K. Jeans presentation was not mainly about sim2real but about online adaptation strategies for learning locomotion. G. Swamy, S. Reddy, S. Levine, and A.D. Dragan.
