• Abstract: This paper explores the integration of incremental curriculum learning (ICL) with deep reinforcement learning (DRL) techniques to facilitate mobile robot navigation through task-based human instruction. By adopting a curriculum that mirrors the progressive complexity encountered in human learning, our approach systematically enhances robots' ability to interpret and execute complex instructions over time. We explore the principles of DRL and its synergy with ICL, demonstrating how this combination not only improves training efficiency but also equips mobile robots with the generalization capability required for navigating through dynamic indoor environments. Empirical results indicate that robots trained with our ICL-enhanced DRL framework outperform those trained without curriculum learning, highlighting the benefits of structured learning progressions in robotic training.

  Reinforcement learning can be used to build general-purpose robotic systems. However, training RL agents to solve robotics tasks still remains challenging. In this work, we manually specify a library of robot action primitives (RAPS), parameterized with arguments that are learned by an RL policy. We find that our simple change to the action interface substantially improves both the learning efficiency and task performance.
