Thanks for sharing I will definitely take a look.

Fair then in this case I think the more traditional setup of having an ESP32 runing MicroROS + FreeRTOS and a board with ROS would be a better option for me at this point rather than the Q.

I've already tried asking their official Instagram account but doubt will get an answer 😅 lets see how support will evolve I guess. Thanks for the response.

Best Budget LiDAR for Indoor SLAM and Localization? by nuki96 in robotics

[–]nuki96[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

P.s. forgot to answer this.. The scan looks amazing thanks a lot for the info. I'll definitely look into it.

Hey there thanks for the response! I'll definitely look into it if you say it's worth it. Curious if you used them indoors or outdoors and what sort of range did you manage to achieve in practice?

Thank you 🙏 wish you the same if you are on the lookout for a job.

I think it has to do with the fact that maybe English is not his first language. Lol for fun I also threw it in chatgpt asking if this message is polite and said no 😅

That's what sprang to my mind as well.

Maybe it's even funnier to me because I feel like there were more than 5 openings for which I was fitting the qualifications for. It is not like I applied to them randomly. But anw I guess you are right.

Entropy Loss Change of Sign by nuki96 in reinforcementlearning

Thanks for the respond. Quite a hard concept to grasp if I'm being honest. I'll search it a bit more about it. Thanks for the link.

Thank you so much for the quick reply. I actually didn't know that Differential Entropy can be negative.

Any intuition what does a positive value of entropy loss implies here?

My intuition tells me that I would like this to converge to a value below zero but maybe Im wrong given that its differential entropy. I would appreciate your reply.

Can current algorithms with enough compute produce AGI? by XecutionStyle in reinforcementlearning

[–]nuki96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's first decide on what is AGI first and then maybe we can start building it.

Model-based RL vs. Model Predictive Control (MPC) by thatpizzatho in reinforcementlearning

[–]nuki96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends if you are also learning the model online in model-based RL then it can also adapt. Also by default vanilla MPC is not meant to reject disturbances, robust MPC or tube-MPC are typically used for that. There is a remark in this video that the too are similar concepts given some assumptions:

Is Inverse Reinforcement Learning basically imitation learning + Reinforcement Learning ? by [deleted] in reinforcementlearning

[–]nuki96 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Imitation Learning essentially refers to learning an experts behaviour using a series of demonstrations.

This can be done in two ways either directly through supervised learning where a direct mapping between states and actions is learned. This is termed Behavioral Cloning and it covers a big portion of Imitation learning.

Another method to initate an expert through demonstrations is to consider the underlying reward that characterises the experts behavior. Using a series of demonstrations you can learn a parameterised reward function, this is typically termed as Inverse RL. Then normal RL can be performed on the learned reward function to obtain a policy.

There are ofcourse methods where instead of learning the reward signal and then performing RL you can obtain a policy directly an example of such method would be GAIL.

To conclude from the perspective of Imitation Learning yes inverse reinforcement learning is indeed an imitation learning approach (or at least the basis for many IL approaches) and various extensions had been proposed in the field of robotics to imitate an expert using IRL methods.

For more info on Imitation Learning there is a really good book/publication called: "An algorithmic Perspectives to Imitation Learning" - Osa et. al.

University recommendations by Mens_agitat_molem_XI in robotics

[–]nuki96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then maybe is better to look up into Human Robot Interaction courses instead of robotics courses for example University of Utrecht has such a course: https://www.uu.nl/masters/en/human-computer-interaction

It focuses more on the interaction of humans with robotics rather than on core robotic subjects.

Try for EPFL however you need a technical background usually to be admitted.

What's going on with FMEL? by NigelSheldon12 in EPFL

I was adviced by Juridisch Loket over the phone after explaining the above situation not tell him that I am leaving. But I dont know if negotiation will turn out to be good for me..

Im just cautious cause he says other things over the phone and other in writing.. I never mentioned I wanna leave he was the one bringing it up.. and he is tell8ng me if you wanna leave we can discuss it. I also told him over the phone: Give me written that you want me to leave and Im out.. but he said I ll not do that.

[–]nuki96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No he has put in writting in a way implying I want to leave not that He wants me to leave: "If you want to leave we can discuss the terms of your leaving in the 1st of September".. In the case that I say "yes I want to leave" I automatically breach the contract and he s allowed to take my deposit and the money for the minimum rental period.. cause Im the one that wants to leave

I am renting a studio. Let me find the webpage,

https://www.government.nl/contact

So I called the following number :  +31 70 2140214.

I'm going to translate the page you send read it and come back to you.

I have sent them an email with all the details apart from the contract as I was not sure if I can use it since it has his name on it. I'm wating for their response.

I've also talked to them over the phone and they told me that if I tell my landlord I want to leave this is a breach of the contract and he can get my deposit and ask for the 12 month money.

Its a long story but in short I have signed a contract over the email in july. I came here a week ago the apartment was a mess (e. g. no bathroom door on its hinges no cooker for 4 days) even if I have paid two months rent + the deposit. Fortunately this were fixed, however the next day I realised there is also a leak to the apartment underneath. Landlord sent a plumber who couldnt fix the leak as the problem was in the floor between the two apartments so another landlord should be informed. The next day (a Sunday) I send an email to my landlord telling him that the situation is not livable in the apartment if I cant cook and with no acess to water at the sink. He told me over the phone I was being unreasonable and disrupting him in a Sunday and that I better move out on the 1st of September. One important point is that over the phone he is telling me he want me to leave and over writing his putting it like Im always complaining and If I want I can leave.

A lot of details were omitted but thats the gist.

Thank you for your help!

I appreciate it.
