DISEIL: Demonstration Distillation for Sample-Efficient Imitation Learning

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 8, 2026 · UTC

A robot that can be taught a new task from a handful of demonstrations has to work out for itself what it still cannot do, and then ask for exactly that. Interactive imitation learning takes a step in that direction by letting a policy practice on its own and calling an expert when it goes wrong. Existing methods decide when to interrupt the learner. A further 2 decisions are left to whichever episode happened to trigger the interruption: which failure to correct, and where the demonstration should start. This paper is a first attempt at making both of them deliberately. DISEIL (Demonstration
