• Abstract summary: We study a new continual learning problem in the context of video prediction. We propose the continual predictive learning (CPL) approach, which learns a mixture world model via predictive experience replay. We construct two new benchmarks based on RoboNet and KTH, in which different tasks correspond to different physical robotic environments or human actions.

• Abstract: Predictive learning ideally builds the world model of physical processes in one or more given environments. Typical setups assume that we can collect data from all environments at all times. In practice, however, different prediction tasks may arrive sequentially so that the environments may change persistently throughout the training procedure. Can we develop predictive learning algorithms that can deal with more realistic, non-stationary physical environments? In this paper, we study a new continual learning problem in the context of video prediction, and observe that most existing methods suffer from severe catastrophic forgetting in this setup. To tackle this problem, we propose the continual predictive learning (CPL) approach, which learns a mixture world model via predictive experience replay and performs test-time adaptation with non-parametric task inference. We construct two new benchmarks based on RoboNet and KTH, in which different tasks correspond to different physical robotic environments or human actions. Our approach is shown to effectively mitigate forgetting and remarkably outperform the na\"ive combinations of previous art in video prediction and continual learning.

  We present a new continual learning approach for visual dynamics modeling and explore its efficacy in visual control and forecasting. We first propose the mixture world model that learns task-specific dynamics priors with a mixture of Gaussians, and then introduce a new training strategy to overcome catastrophic forgetting. Our model remarkably outperforms the naive combinations of existing continual learning and visual RL algorithms on DeepMind Control and Meta-World benchmarks with continual visual control tasks.

  We show how to adapt vision-based robotic manipulation policies to new variations by fine-tuning via off-policy reinforcement learning.

We find that our approach of adapting pre-trained policies leads to substantial performance gains over the course of fine-tuning.
