Learning Parameterized Skills (2012, methodology): “[66] introduced a method to choose, at any given moment, which of a number of skills (or options) an agent should attempt to improve.”
Active learning of inverse models with intrinsically motivated goal exploration in robots (2013, positive): “The study proposed in [94] is based on the competence progress , which they use to select goals in a pre-specified set of skills considered in a discrete world.”
Curriculum Learning for Motor Skills (2012, background): “Stout and Barto [14] explore the use of a competence-based intrinsic motivation as a developmental model for skill acquisition.”
Autonomous Skill Acquisition on a Mobile Manipulator (2011, background): “…mainly on the development of heuristics that are able to identify potentially useful skills in advance, and the design of artificial reward functions that encourage the agent to explore efficiently (Singh, Barto, and Chentanez 2005) or to choose to practice new skills (Stout and Barto 2010).”
Self-organization of early vocal development in infants and machines: the role of intrinsic motivation (2014, background): “…learning machines (Schmidhuber, 1991; Barto et al., 2004; Schembri et al., 2007; Hart, 2009; Merrick and Maher, 2009; Schmidhuber, 2010; Stout and Barto, 2010) and robots (Oudeyer et al., 2007; Baranes and Oudeyer, 2013), these developmental mechanisms have been shown to yield highly…”
GRAIL: A Goal-Discovering Robotic Architecture for Intrinsically-Motivated Learning (2016, background): “works in this framework have mainly focused on discrete state and action domains [12] possibly with pre-established goals [82].”
Intrinsically Motivated Learning of Real-World Sensorimotor Skills with Developmental Constraints (2013, background): “…based intrinsically motivated exploration (Bakker and Schmidhuber , 2004; Baranes and Oudeyer, 2010a; Oudeyer and Kaplan, 2008; Schembri et al., 2007b; Stout and Barto, 2010), i.e. an architecture directly driven by the acquisition of skills (see also Rolf et al., 2010 for a related approach).”
Intrinsically Motivated Learning in Natural and Artificial Systems (2013, background): “On the contrary, competencebased intrinsic motivation mechanisms have been always used for improving skills (Baranes and Oudeyer 2010; Barto et al. 2004; Schembri et al. 2007a; Stout and Barto 2010).”
What are intrinsic motivations? A biological perspective (2011, background): “has been investigated in [52] based on a principled framework.”
