Using video game to train robots
While planning a task may seem simple to your mind, it is not so for robots. Researchers from the Brown University are developing a new algorithm, using a video game called Minecraft, to help robots better plan their actions in complex environments. The problem researchers in robotics face is that robots do not intuitively ignore objects and actions that are irrelevant to the task at hand.
New York: While planning a task may seem simple to your mind, it is not so for robots. Researchers from the Brown University are developing a new algorithm, using a video game called Minecraft, to help robots better plan their actions in complex environments. The problem researchers in robotics face is that robots do not intuitively ignore objects and actions that are irrelevant to the task at hand.
Robots, however, lack that intuition. Most approaches to planning consider the entire set of possible objects and actions before deciding which course to pursue. In other words, a robot might actually consider turning on the oven as part of its planning process for taking out the trash. In complex environments, this leads to what computer scientists refer to as the "state-space explosion" - an array of choices so large that it boggles the robot mind.
