Researchers leveraged deep reinforcement learning (DRL) to enable a robot to adaptively switch gaits, mimicking animal movements like trotting and pronking, to traverse complex terrains effectively. Their study explores the concept of viability--or fall prevention--as a primary motivator for such gait transitions, challenging previous beliefs that energy efficiency is the key driver.
