Many prediction problems, such as those that arise in the context of robotics, have a simplifying underlying structure that could accelerate learning. In this paper, we present a strategy for learning a set of neural network modules that can be combined in different ways. We train different modular structures on a set of related tasks and generalize to new tasks by composing the learned modules in new ways. We show this improves performance in two robotics-related problems.
