Variable risk policy search for dynamic robot control

A central goal of the robotics community is to develop general optimization algorithms for producing high-performance dynamic behaviors in robot systems. This goal is challenging because many robot control tasks are characterized by significant stochasticity, high-dimensionality, expensive evaluatio...
