This algorithm could come in handy in places like a hospital, factory, house, or coffee shop. For example, if you wanted a robot to clean up your living room, it would need help practicing skills like sweeping. EES could help that robot improve w/o human intervention, using

Robot Vision System Learns Task Execution Through Practice
By
–
EES first works w/a vision system that locates & tracks the machine’s surroundings. Then, the algorithm estimates how reliably the robot executes an action & if it should practice more.

Robot skill refinement through EES forecasting and vision feedback
By
–
EES forecasts how well the robot could perform the overall task if it refines that skill & finally it practices. The vision system then checks if that skill was done correctly after each attempt. pic.twitter.com/oGBoP8zUL5

MIT’s EES Algorithm Enables Robots to Practice and Improve Autonomously
By
–
The phrase "practice makes perfect" is great advice for humans — and also a helpful maxim for robots Instead of requiring a human expert to guide such improvement, MIT & The AI Institute’s "Estimate, Extrapolate, and Situate" (EES) algorithm enables these machines to practice

VGNN accelerates phonon dispersion calculations for materials discovery
By
–
A VGNN could help calculate phonon dispersion relations for a few thousand materials in just a few seconds w/a personal computer. This efficiency could enable scientists to search a larger space when seeking materials with certain thermal properties.
