Harri Valpola: System 2 AI and Planning in Model-Based Reinforcement Learning

98 min • 25 maj 2020

In this episode of Machine Learning Street Talk, Tim Scarfe, Yannic Kilcher and Connor Shorten interviewed Harri Valpola, CEO and Founder of Curious AI. We continued our discussion of System 1 and System 2 thinking in Deep Learning, as well as miscellaneous topics around Model-based Reinforcement Learning. Dr. Valpola describes some of the challenges of modelling industrial control processes such as water sewage filters and paper mills with the use of model-based RL. Dr. Valpola and his collaborators recently published “Regularizing Trajectory Optimization with Denoising Autoencoders” that addresses some of the concerns of planning algorithms that exploit inaccuracies in their world models!
