Abstract
In robot learning we face challenge of data-efficient learning. In this talk, we will make the case for three types of useful models that become handy in robot learning: probabilistic models, hierarchical models, and models that allow us to incorporate the underlying physics. We will briefly outline strong use cases for these three models in the context of model-based reinforcement learning, meta learning, and system identification.
