    Implementing motion imitation methods involves lots of nuisances. Not many codebases get all the details right. So, we're excited to release MimicKit! github.com/xbpeng/MimicKit A framework with high quality implementations of our methods: DeepMimic, AMP, ASE, ADD, and more to come!

    We've just released the DeepMimic code + mocap data + pre-trained policies: github.com/xbpeng/DeepMim… Everything you need to train a simulated humanoid to do this:

    I'll be joining SFU as an Assistant Prof and NVIDIA as a Research Scientist! Currently looking for MSc/PhD students. If you are interested in working together on topics in RL, animation, and legged robots, apply through @SFU.

    Checkout our new paper on advantage-weighted regression: xbpeng.github.io/projects/AWR an extremely simple off-policy RL algorithm that just uses supervised learning for policy updates. Code is available here: github.com/xbpeng/awr We can use AWR to train this little guy:

    New paper on regularizing adversarial learning with a variational discriminator bottleneck. Our method (VAIL) can imitate challenging skills from mocap data, and can even learn to run directly from a video clip: xbpeng.github.io/projects/VDB/i…

    We have released a super fast implementation of AMP using @nvidia's Isaac Gym. Models that used to take days to train can now be trained in minutes! github.com/NVIDIA-Omniver… There's also a retargeting script for loading new motion clips. Thanks to @viktor_m81, @gavrielstate.

    MimicKit now has support for motion retargeting with GMR. We also released a bunch of parkour motions recorded from a professional athlete, used in ADD and PARC. Anyone brave enough to deploy a double kong on a G1? 😉
