内容:

This talk will cover the integration of geometric structures in robotic learning and planning. Focused on the challenges of robotic applications and their algorithms, it explores how geometric structures act as inductive biases to enhance learning and planning. The discussion will cover Linfeng’s recent research contributions, including methods for learning representations and integrating symmetry and compositionality, demonstrating their impact on the efficiency and generalizability of robotic systems. This presentation aims to shed light on the potential of geometric structures in more generalizable and scalable intelligent robots.
