CPG-ACTOR: reinforcement learning for central pattern generators

Abstract:

Central Pattern Generators (CPGs) have several properties desirable for locomotion: they generate smooth trajectories, are robust to perturbations and are simple to implement. However, they are notoriously difficult to tune and commonly operate in an open-loop manner. This paper proposes a new methodology that allows tuning CPG controllers through gradient-based optimisation in a Reinforcement Learning (RL) setting. In particular, we show how CPGs can directly be integrated as the Actor in an...
