Learning to Explore using Active Neural SLAM
TL;DR: This work presents a modular and hierarchical approach to learn policies for exploring 3D environments, called `Active Neural SLAM', which leverages the strengths of both classical and learning-based methods, by using analytical path planners with learned SLAM module, and global and local policies.

Learning to fly by crashing
TL;DR: This paper builds a drone whose sole purpose is to crash into objects: it samples naive trajectories and crashes into random objects to create one of the biggest UAV crash dataset.

Object Goal Navigation using Goal-Oriented Semantic Exploration
TL;DR: A modular system called, `Goal-Oriented Semantic Exploration' which builds an episodic semantic map and uses it to explore the environment efficiently based on the goal object category and outperforms a wide range of baselines including end-to-end learning-based methods as well as modular map- based methods.

Self-Supervised Exploration via Disagreement
TL;DR: In this article, an ensemble of dynamics models is used to incentivize the agent to explore such that the disagreement of those ensembles is maximized, which results in a sample-efficient exploration.

Self-Supervised Exploration via Disagreement
TL;DR: This paper proposes a formulation for exploration inspired by the work in active learning literature and trains an ensemble of dynamics models and incentivizes the agent to explore such that the disagreement of those ensembles is maximized, which results in a sample-efficient exploration.
