#PhD #Postdoc position
Title: Representation Learning for Planning (RLeap).

> Denoscription: Data-based learners, like those based on deep learning, are popular because there is plenty of data available, yet they produce black boxes that lack the flexibility, transparency, and guarantees of model-based systems. Building models by hand, on the other hand, it is just too hard.

By showing how to learn meaningful, symbolic models form raw perceptions, the research is aimed at integrating the benefits of data-based learners and model-based solvers in the context of planning, where representations play a key role in expressing, communicating, achieving, and recognizing goals. First-order symbolic representations refer to the representations based on objects and their relations.

The problem of representation learning for planning is largely unsolved. Two characteristics of deep reinforcement learning, one of the main approaches for learning how to act, are its ability to deal with high dimensional perceptual spaces without requiring any prior knowledge, combined with its inability to produce and re-use such knowledge. The construction of reusable knowledge (transfer learning) is a central concern in (deep) reinforcement learning, but the semantic and conceptual gap between the low level techniques that are used, and the high-level representations that are required, is just too large.

For addressing this challenge, new ideas and methods are required that will build on those of relevant areas that include planning, learning, knowledge representation, and combinatorial optimization. The approach to be the interpretations (grounding) of those representations, and it involves a number of subproblems like:

- learning  symbolic representations and their interpretation from raw perceptions (e.g., images)
- learning hierarchical symbolic representations to enable planning at different levels of abstraction:
- learning representations to explore, plan, and obtain and express general plans
- learning structure from suitable combinations of SAT and gradient-based methods
- understanding role of attention and partial observability in learning, grounding, and skill composition
- understanding the theoretical properties of representations and their relations to planning width.
