Skill Diversity
We evaluate whether SkiLD is indeed capable of achieving complex interaction graphs, comparing against two strong skill discovery baselines: DIAYN and CSD.
We unroll each of them for 500 episodes with randomly sampled skills z and examine the diversity of the interaction graphs they can induce.
The left figure illustrates the percentages of episodes where particular local dependencies have been induced at least once, in the Cleaning Car environment. We find that DIAYN and CSD are limited to skills that only manipulate one object individually, i.e. (agent, rag, action → rag) or (agent, soap, action → soap). By contrast, SkiLD learns to induce more complicated causal interactions, such as soaking the rag in the sink (sink, rag → rag) and cleaning the car with the soaked mug (car, rag → car).
