VAE-Loco: versatile quadruped locomotion by learning a disentangled gait representation

Quadruped locomotion is rapidly maturing to a degree where robots are able to realize highly dynamic maneuvers. However, current planners are unable to vary key gait parameters of the in-swing feet midair. In this article, we address this limitation and show that it is pivotal in increasing controll...
