Learning and Transferring Closed-Loop Robot Software

Overview

Event synthesis

This research investigates whether improvements in closed-loop robot policy implementations for source tasks can be transferred to new tasks. By treating complete closed-loop implementations as reusable execution experience, the authors use a coding agent to generate and iteratively improve policy code from demonstrations and simulation feedback. Validated implementations are stored in a software archive. The study evaluates policy learning across four RoboCasa source tasks and cross-task transfer on nine additional target tasks. Results show that iterative optimization increases success rates from 28.3% to 64.2% on source tasks, and using archived code improves performance on new tasks from 41.5% (initially generated) to 57.0%. The approach is further validated on a physical Unitree G1 robot.

“es using archived implementations, target demonstrations, and execution feedback. We evaluate policy learning and its relationship to cross-task transfer. For learning, across four source tasks in RoboCasa, iterative optimization increases the success rate from 28.3% with initially generated policy code to 64.2% with validation-selected policy code. We further validate this learning approach on a physical Unitree G1.”

“For transfer, across nine additional target tasks in RoboCasa, success rates are 45.2% without references, 41.5% using initially generated policy code from source tasks, and 57.0% using their validation-selected policy code. These results show that improving source-task code also improves learning on new tasks.”
