How to Utilize Failure Demo Data?: Effective Data Selection for Imitation Learning Using Distribution Differences in Attention Mechanism

Kana Miyamoto, Kanata Suzuki, Tetsuya Ogata

Failure demonstrations can improve imitation learning policies when selected by measuring attention discrepancies between successes and failures.

Claims

C1strongest claim

Simulation results show that the proposed method improves task success rates when trained with failure data and that the proposed metric identifies failure samples that are beneficial for learning when combined with successful demonstrations.

C2weakest assumption

That the post-training attention discrepancy metric reliably identifies failure samples that improve rather than degrade policy performance, without introducing selection bias or requiring task-specific tuning.

C3one line summary

The method uses attention discrepancy metrics on latent success-failure representations to select beneficial failure data for imitation learning, raising task success rates in simulations.
