DTC: Deep Tracking Control

no code implementations27 Sep 2023 Fabian Jenelten, Junzhe He, Farbod Farshidian, Marco Hutter

Finally, we show that our proposed tracking controller generalizes across different trajectory optimization methods not seen during training.

Articulated Object Interaction in Unknown Scenes with Whole-Body Mobile Manipulation

1 code implementation18 Mar 2021 Mayank Mittal, David Hoeller, Farbod Farshidian, Marco Hutter, Animesh Garg

A kitchen assistant needs to operate human-scale objects, such as cabinets and ovens, in unmapped environments with dynamic obstacles.

Learning a State Representation and Navigation in Cluttered and Dynamic Environments

no code implementations7 Mar 2021 David Hoeller, Lorenz Wellhausen, Farbod Farshidian, Marco Hutter

We show that decoupling the pipeline into these components results in a sample efficient policy learning stage that can be fully trained in simulation in just a dozen minutes.

Deep Value Model Predictive Control

no code implementations8 Oct 2019 Farbod Farshidian, David Hoeller, Marco Hutter

The DMPC actor is a Model Predictive Control (MPC) optimizer with an objective function defined in terms of a value function estimated by the critic.

MPC-Net: A First Principles Guided Policy Search

1 code implementation11 Sep 2019 Jan Carius, Farbod Farshidian, Marco Hutter

Our loss function, however, corresponds to the minimization of the control Hamiltonian, which derives from the principle of optimality.

Optimal and Learning Control for Autonomous Robots

no code implementations30 Aug 2017 Jonas Buchli, Farbod Farshidian, Alexander Winkler, Timothy Sandy, Markus Giftthaler

Optimal and Learning Control for Autonomous Robots has been taught in the Robotics, Systems and Controls Masters at ETH Zurich with the aim to teach optimal control and reinforcement learning for closed loop control problems from a unified point of view.

Efficient Kinematic Planning for Mobile Manipulators with Non-holonomic Constraints Using Optimal Control

no code implementations27 Jan 2017 Markus Giftthaler, Farbod Farshidian, Timothy Sandy, Lukas Stadelmann, Jonas Buchli

This work addresses the problem of kinematic trajectory planning for mobile manipulators with non-holonomic constraints, and holonomic operational-space tracking constraints.
