The proposed concurrent DRL algorithm enables robots to take a broader and more long-term view of tasks and behaviours, and decide on their next action before the current one is completed.
The crowdsourcing produced 111.25 hours of video from 54 non-expert demonstrators to build “one of the largest, richest, and most diverse robot manipulation datasets ever collected using human creativity and dexterity.”
Google Brain Research Scientist Ian Goodfellow has tweeted an alarm about IoT hacking of a particularly nightmarish type, after Brown University security researchers were able to remotely access and control a robot in a university research lab. The research also showed that many robotic labs worldwide may be vulnerable to such a takeover technique.
