• Abstract: Recent increase in popularity of indoor climbing allows possible applications of deep learning algorthms to classify and generate climbing routes. In this work, we employ a variational autoencoder to climbing routes in a standardized training apparatus MoonBoard, a well-known training tool within the climbing community. By sampling the encoded latent space, it is observed that the algorithm can generate high quality climbing routes. 22 generated problems are uploaded to the Moonboard app for user review. This algorithm could serve as a first step to facilitate indoor climbing route setting.

  Bouldering is a sport where athletes aim to climb up an obstacle using a set of defined holds called a route. The variation in individual climbers technical and physical attributes and many nuances of an individual route make grading a difficult and often biased task. We apply classical and deep-learning modelling techniques to the 2016, 2017 and 2019 Moonboard datasets.

We create a large-scale dataset which comprises reasonable path-instruction pairs from house tour videos and pre-training the agent on it.
