Can self-supervised pre-training improve the robustness of imitation learning policies to domain shift in simu

The field of meta-learning, or learning-to-learn, has seen a dramatic rise in interest in recent years. Contrary to conventional approaches to AI where a given task is solved from scratch using a fixed learning algorithm, meta-learning aims to improve the learning algorithm itself, given the experience of multiple learning episodes. This paradigm provides an opportunity to tackle many of the conventional challenges of deep learning, including data and computation bottlenecks, as well as the fundamental issue of generalization. In this survey we describe the contemporary meta-learning landscape

Research goal: Can self-supervised pre-training improve the robustness of imitation learning policies to domain shift in simulation-to-real transfer scenarios compared to standard supervised baselines?
