Our method combines behavioral cloning with neural network repair in a two-step supervised learning framework. It first learns a policy from expert demonstrations and then applies repair subject to predictive models to enforce safety constraints. The predictive models can encompass various aspects relevant to robot learning applications, such as proprioceptive states and collision likelihood. Our experimental results demonstrate that the learned policy successfully adheres to a predefined set of safety constraints on two applications: mobile robot navigation, and real-world lower-leg prostheses. Additionally, we have shown that our method effectively reduces repeated interaction with the robot, leading to substantial time savings during the learning process.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.04408v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2411.04408v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"repairing-neural-networks-for-safety-in","repo_url":"https://github.com/k1majd/SARP","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"tf","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
