Legged robots are well-suited for deployment in unstructured environments but require a unique control scheme specific for their design. As controllers optimised in simulation do not transfer well to the real world (the infamous sim-to-real gap), methods enabling quick learning in the real world, without any assumptions on the specific robot model and its dynamics, are necessary. In this paper, we present a generic method based on Central Pattern Generators, that enables the acquisition of basic locomotion skills in parallel, through very few trials.

In this study, we aimed to investigate the impact of status on NPM1 MRD predictive value for survival in a retrospective cohort of AML patients aged over 60 years old treated intensively.
