Hello, I'm Oliver Hausdörfer
I am a PhD candidate at Prof. Schoellig’s lab at Technical University of Munich. My main interests include control for complex systems, reinforcement learning, and robotics. Previously, I completed a M.Sc. degree in Robotics at TUM, and wrote my master’s thesis with Prof. Ijspeert. I was at Robert Bosch GmbH and in the Formula Student. Member of AI Grid. Podcast at Labs Talk.
Publications
CRISP - Compliant ROS2 Controllers for Learning-Based Manipulation Policies and Teleoperation
TBD
C++ Controllers, Python Interfaces, and Gymnasium environments for teleoperation and deploying learning-based policies on manipulators.
Communication Compression for Tensor Parallel LLM Inference
NeurIPS, 2024
Conference workshop
Inter-GPU communication compression for Large Language Models leads to up to 2x reduction of time-to-first-token with negligible model performance degradation.
Latent Action Priors From a Single Gait Cycle Demonstration for Online Imitation Learning
CoRL, 2024
Conference workshop
A single gait cycle of expert demonstration significantly improves achieved reward and visual appearance of the learned gait in locomotion tasks - even for transfer tasks.
Deep reinforcement learning for investigating stretch feedback during swimming of the lamprey
Bioinspiration & Biomimetics
Journal (masters' thesis)
Lampreys can locomote using only based on local sensory feedback loops. Similar neural network designs show favorable properties for robot learning.
