The authors introduce Success Guided Sampling (SGS), which estimates a policy’s success rate across task configurations and changes the reset distribution during training.

Why this paper

From NVIDIA and University of Washington

In one line

Sampling task configurations where a policy has moderate success rates lets massively parallel robot RL solve harder tasks.
