Unified framework for imitating tasks across domains with discrepancies.

problem Learning tasks across domains with embodiment, viewpoint, and dynamics mismatches.

In 1929, Paul Funk and Ludwig Berwald gave a characterization of Hilbert geometries from the Finslerian viewpoint. They showed that a smooth Finsler metric in a convex bounded domain of Rn\mathbb{R}^n is the Hilbert geometry in that domain if and only if it is complete, if its geodesics are straight lines and if its fl…
