Training and/or using a machine learning model for locomotion control of a robot, where the model is decoupled. In many implementations, the model is decoupled into an open loop component and a feedback component, where a user can provide a desired reference trajectory (e.g., a symmetric sine curve) as input for the open loop component. In additional and/or alternative implementations, the model is decoupled into a pattern generator component and a feedback component, where a user can provide controlled parameter(s) as input for the pattern generator component to generate pattern generator phase data (e.g., an asymmetric sine curve). The neural network model can be used to generate robot control parameters.

Systems and methods for learning agile locomotion for multiped robots

A computer-implemented method is disclosed for training one or more machine-learned models. The method can include inputting a first image frame and a second image frame into a feature disentanglement model and receiving, as an output of the machine-learned feature disentanglement model, a state feature and a perspective feature. The method can include inputting the state feature and the perspective feature into a machine-learned decoder model and receiving, as an output of the machine-learned decoder model, the reconstructed image frame. The method can include comparing the reconstructed image frame with a third image frame corresponding with the location and the perspective orientation. The method can include adjusting one or more parameters of the machine-learned feature disentanglement model based on the comparison of the reconstructed image frame and the third image frame.
