Abstract

Behavioural cloning is a method by which a machine learns control skills through observing what a human controller would do in a certain set of circumstances. More specifically, the machine learns to determine, given the current sensory input, the best of its actions to perform. This paper discusses a robot, situated in the real world, which very quickly learns target pursuit and obstacle avoidance behaviours using this technique. We also discuss the benefits of decision tree learning in the implementation.
