Manipulating deformable objects has long been a challenge in robotics due to its high dimensional state representation and complex dynamics. Recent success in deep reinforcement learning provides a promising direction for learning to manipulate deformable objects with data driven methods. However, existing reinforcement learning benchmarks only cover tasks with direct state observability and simple low-dimensional dynamics or with relatively simple image-based environments, such as those with rigid objects. In this paper, we present SoftGym, a set of open-source simulated benchmarks for manipulating deformable objects, with a standard OpenAI Gym API and a Python interface for creating new environments. Our benchmark will enable reproducible research in this important area. Further, we evaluate a variety of algorithms on these tasks and highlight challenges for reinforcement learning algorithms, including dealing with a state representation that has a high intrinsic dimensionality and is partially observable. The experiments and analysis indicate the strengths and limitations of existing methods in the context of deformable object manipulation that can help point the way forward for future methods development. Code and videos of the learned policies can be found on our project website.

Manipulating deformable objects, such as cloth and ropes, is a long-standing challenge in robotics: their large number of degrees of freedom (DoFs) and complex non-linear dynamics make motion planning extremely difficult. This work aims to learn late
nt Graph dynamics for DefOrmable Object Manipulation (G-DOOM). To tackle the challenge of many DoFs and complex dynamics, G-DOOM approximates a deformable object as a sparse set of interacting keypoints and learns a graph neural network that captures abstractly the geometry and interaction dynamics of the keypoints. Further, to tackle the perceptual challenge, specifically, object self-occlusion, G-DOOM adds a recurrent neural network to track the keypoints over time and condition their interactions on the history. We then train the resulting recurrent graph dynamics model through contrastive learning in a high-fidelity simulator. For manipulation planning, G-DOOM explicitly reasons about the learned dynamics model through model-predictive control applied at each of the keypoints. We evaluate G-DOOM on a set of challenging cloth and rope manipulation tasks and show that G-DOOM outperforms a state-of-the-art method. Further, although trained entirely on simulation data, G-DOOM transfers directly to a real robot for both cloth and rope manipulation in our experiments.
We present DeepClaw as a reconfigurable benchmark of robotic hardware and task hierarchy for robot learning. The DeepClaw benchmark aims at a mechatronics perspective of the robot learning problem, which features a minimum design of robot cell that c
an be easily reconfigured to host robot hardware from various vendors, including manipulators, grippers, cameras, desks, and objects, aiming at a streamlined collection of physical manipulation data and evaluation of the learned skills for hardware benchmarking. We provide a detailed design of the robot cell with readily available parts to build the experiment environment that can host a wide range of robotic hardware commonly adopted for robot learning. We also propose a hierarchical pipeline of software integration, including localization, recognition, grasp planning, and motion planning, to streamline learning-based robot control, data collection, and experiment validation towards shareability and reproducibility. We present benchmarking results of the DeepClaw system for a baseline Tic-Tac-Toe task, a bin-clearing task, and a jigsaw puzzle task using three sets of standard robotic hardware. Our results show that tasks defined in DeepClaw can be easily reproduced on three robot cells. Under the same task setup, the differences in robotic hardware used will present a non-negligible impact on the performance metrics of robot learning. All design layouts and codes are hosted on Github for open access.
We present a framework for visual action planning of complex manipulation tasks with high-dimensional state spaces such as manipulation of deformable objects. Planning is performed in a low-dimensional latent state space that embeds images. We define
and implement a Latent Space Roadmap (LSR) which is a graph-based structure that globally captures the latent system dynamics. Our framework consists of two main components: a Visual Foresight Module (VFM) that generates a visual plan as a sequence of images, and an Action Proposal Network (APN) that predicts the actions between them. We show the effectiveness of the method on a simulated box stacking task as well as a T-shirt folding task performed with a real robot.
Mobile manipulation tasks remain one of the critical challenges for the widespread adoption of autonomous robots in both service and industrial scenarios. While planning approaches are good at generating feasible whole-body robot trajectories, they s
truggle with dynamic environments as well as the incorporation of constraints given by the task and the environment. On the other hand, dynamic motion models in the action space struggle with generating kinematically feasible trajectories for mobile manipulation actions. We propose a deep reinforcement learning approach to learn feasible dynamic motions for a mobile base while the end-effector follows a trajectory in task space generated by an arbitrary system to fulfill the task at hand. This modular formulation has several benefits: it enables us to readily transform a broad range of end-effector motions into mobile applications, it allows us to use the kinematic feasibility of the end-effector trajectory as a dense reward signal and its modular formulation allows it to generalise to unseen end-effector motions at test time. We demonstrate the capabilities of our approach on multiple mobile robot platforms with different kinematic abilities and different types of wheeled platforms in extensive simulated as well as real-world experiments.
Enabling robots to quickly learn manipulation skills is an important, yet challenging problem. Such manipulation skills should be flexible, e.g., be able adapt to the current workspace configuration. Furthermore, to accomplish complex manipulation ta
sks, robots should be able to sequence several skills and adapt them to changing situations. In this work, we propose a rapid robot skill-sequencing algorithm, where the skills are encoded by object-centric hidden semi-Markov models. The learned skill models can encode multimodal (temporal and spatial) trajectory distributions. This approach significantly reduces manual modeling efforts, while ensuring a high degree of flexibility and re-usability of learned skills. Given a task goal and a set of generic skills, our framework computes smooth transitions between skill instances. To compute the corresponding optimal end-effector trajectory in task space we rely on Riemannian optimal controller. We demonstrate this approach on a 7 DoF robot arm for industrial assembly tasks.
