<!-- If a model or policy is mainly trained in a simulator but expected to work on a real robot, it would surely face the sim2real gap. *Domain Randomization* (DR) is a simple but powerful idea of closing this gap by randomizing properties of the training environment. --> <p>In Robotics, one of the hardest problems is how to make your model transfer to the real world. Due to the sample inefficiency of deep RL algorithms and the cost of data collection on real robots, we often need to train model
