AI 中文摘要
协调的多人类形机器人移动操作任务前景广阔,但由于高维全身控制、去中心化决策和可扩展性等问题,实现起来颇具挑战。尽管近期的强化学习方法已改善了单个人类形机器人的全身控制,但将其扩展到多人类形机器人场景仍非易事,且通常需要大量的奖励工程或任务特定设计。我们提出了MASkillBlender,一个通用的多智能体强化学习框架,用于实现去中心化的多人类形机器人全身协调。通过学习一个共享的、基于可复用预训练单人类形机器人技能的去中心化高层策略,MASkillBlender仅使用任务级奖励即可实现协调行为,无需任务特定的运动参考。为提高学习效率,我们进一步引入了一种基于排列的数据增强策略,适用于同构多人类形机器人系统,并从理论上证明,在同构马尔可夫博弈公式下,排列后的样本保持了原始样本的策略梯度方向。我们在两种人类形机器人实体上对多个多人类形机器人协调任务进行了评估。仿真结果表明,所提出的框架在不同任务和人类形机器人实体上均能持续实现强大的任务性能并产生协调行为。
英文摘要
Coordinated multi-humanoid loco-manipulation is promising yet challenging due to high-dimensional whole-body control, decentralized decision making, and scalability. While recent reinforcement learning methods have improved single-humanoid whole-body control, extending them to the multi-humanoid setting remains nontrivial and often requires substantial reward engineering or task-specific design. We propose MASkillBlender, a general multi-agent reinforcement learning framework to achieve decentralized multi-humanoid whole-body coordination. By learning a shared decentralized high-level policy over reusable pre-trained single-humanoid skills, MASkillBlender enables coordinated behaviors using only task-level rewards, without requiring task-specific motion references. To improve learning efficiency, we further introduce a permutation-based data augmentation strategy for homogeneous multi-humanoid systems, and theoretically show that the permuted samples preserve the policy-gradient direction of the original samples under the homogeneous Markov game formulation. We evaluate MASkillBlender on multiple multi-humanoid coordination tasks across two humanoid embodiments. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed framework consistently achieves strong task performance and enables coordinated behaviors across different tasks and humanoid embodiments.
