DreamerV3
Model-based RL that learns in its own imagination
DreamerV3 learns by imagining. It builds an internal 'dream' of how the world works, then practices inside that dream millions of times — far faster than interacting with the real world. It's how a chess player simulates moves in their head before touching a piece.
Remarkably well-documented for a research model, with fixed hyperparameters that work across tasks. Best for researchers exploring model-based RL for robots — not a plug-in solution.
State-of-the-art model-based reinforcement learning. Learns a world model from pixels, then trains policies entirely in imagination. First to collect diamonds in Minecraft from scratch.
Task-specific exploration (learns from scratch)
Learn robot control policies with minimal real-world interaction
Pre-train robot policies entirely in sim before hardware deployment
Lab-grade infrastructure needed
