  • Publication number: 20250329162
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and computer-readable media for training a machine learning model to label unlabeled data and/or perform automated actions. In an embodiment, a method comprises receiving unlabeled digital video data, generating pseudo-labels for the unlabeled digital video data, the generating comprising receiving labeled digital video data, training an inverse dynamics model (IDM) using the labeled digital video data, and generating at least one pseudo-label for the unlabeled digital video data, wherein the at least one pseudo-label is based on a prediction, generated by the IDM, of one or more actions that mimic at least one timestep of the unlabeled digital video data. In some embodiments, the method further comprises adding the at least one pseudo-label to the unlabeled digital video data and further training the IDM or a machine learning model using the pseudo-labeled digital video data.

  • Patent number: 11829870
    Abstract: A self-driving vehicle implements a deep reinforcement learning based model. The self-driving vehicle comprise one or more sensors configured to capture sensor data of an environment of the self-driving vehicle, a control system configured to navigate the self-driving vehicle, and a controller to determine and provide instructions to the control system. The controller implements a deep reinforcement learning based model that inputs the sensor data captured by the sensors to determine actions to perform by the control system. The model includes an archive storing states reachable by an agent in a training environment, each state stored in the archive is associated with a trajectory for reaching the state. The archive is generated by visiting states stored in the archive and performing actions to explore and find new states. New states are stored in the archive with their trajectories.
