Learning to build covering structures with continuous adjustments

The paper presents a reinforcement learning method, HSAC, that builds covering structures without relying on rigid, pre‑planned sequences. It uses graph‑structured state representations and a mixed action space to select blocks and adjust their placement continuously, while an efficient exploration strategy incorporates unilateral edges into graph neural networks. HSAC outperforms the prior hybrid‑PPO approach, shows strong sample efficiency, robustness to hyperparameters, and successfully transfers policies from simulation to a real two‑robot 3D‑printed block construction task.
