MACHINE-LEARNABLE ROBOTIC CONTROL PLANS

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for using learnable robotic control plans. One of the methods comprises obtaining a learnable robotic control plan comprising data defining a state machine that includes a plurality of states and a plurality of transitions between states, wherein: one or more states are learnable states, and each learnable state comprises data defining (i) one or more learnable parameters of the learnable state and (ii) a machine learning procedure for automatically learning a respective value for each learnable parameter of the learnable state; and processing the learnable robotic control plan to generate a specific robotic control plan, comprising: obtaining data characterizing a robotic execution environment; and for each learnable state, executing, using the obtained data, the respective machine learning procedures defined by the learnable state to generate a respective value for each learnable parameter of the learnable state.
