Keeping Learning-Based Control Safe by Regulating Distributional Shift

BAIR

To regulate the distribution shift experience by learning-based controllers, we seek a mechanism for constraining the agent to regions of high data density throughout its trajectory (left). Here, we present an approach which achieves this goal by combining features of density models (middle) and Lyapunov functions (right). In order to make use of machine learning and reinforcement learning in controlling real world systems, we must design algorithms which not only achieve good performance, but a

Solving the mystery of how an ancient bird went extinct

DeepMind

Could burn marks on ancient eggshells explain the disappearance of the giant flightless bird Genyornis newtoni? This ostrich-sized “thunderbird”, dubbed “the demon-duck of doom” for its huge head, disappeared from Australia’s fossil record about 50,000 years ago. The discovery of burned eggshells led scientists, including a team of scientists led by Gifford Miller at the University of Colorado Boulder, to propose that their extinction was caused by early humans eating their eggs.
