Learning to Generalize Across Long-Horizon Tasks from Human Demonstrations
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We present a novel imitation learning framework to enable robots to 1) learn complex real world manipulation tasks efficiently from a small number of human demonstrations, and 2) synthesize new behaviors ...
We validate GTI in both simulated domains and a challenging long-horizon robotic manipulation domain in the real world. ...
behavior on long horizon manipulation domains from under an hour of human demonstrations. ...

Bottom-Up Skill Discovery from Unsegmented Demonstrations for Long-Horizon Robot Manipulation
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
Finally, we train a meta controller to compose these skills to solve long-horizon manipulation tasks. ...
We tackle real-world long-horizon robot manipulation tasks through skill discovery. ...
In contrast, BUDS breaks down a long-horizon task with skill abstraction, leading to a consistent high performance across tasks of varying lengths. ...

The influence of futures work on public policy and sustainability
2009
Foresight
The findings will be of value to foresight practitioners that are seeking to influence public policy and sustainability. ...
Purpose This paper draws on a global scan of futures literature undertaken for the State of Play in the Futures Field (SOPIFF) project to investigate the contribution of futures work to averting looming ...
To have a concept of sustainability, we need to think about ways in which long-term future developments might undermine the viability of human society and formulate ways in which the needs of future generations ...

Unified Simulation, Perception, and Generation of Human Behavior
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
In this thesis, we take a holistic approach to human behavior modeling and tackle its three essential aspects -- simulation, perception, and generation. ...
We also discuss the lessons learned and our vision for what is next for human behavior modeling. ...
Instead of guiding the humanoid using manually-designed tasks or direct user input, our goal is to let the humanoid learn long-term behaviors directly from data. ...

Prognosis of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a data-driven approach
2015
Proceedings of the Royal Society A
The DDP algorithm facilitates hierarchical handling of the large data set, and can assess the state of recovery in post ACLR conditions based on data collected from stair ascent and descent exercises of ...
Individuals who suffer anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury are at higher risk of developing knee osteoarthritis (OA) and almost 50% display symptoms 10 to 20 years post injury. ...
A relatively high energy exchange amplitude to achieve the same stair ascent or descent task may be taken as an indication that the individual's knee is 'working hard' to achieve the same task. ...

Learning Time-Varying Graphs from Online Data
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
This work proposes an algorithmic framework to learn time-varying graphs from online data. ...
The generality offered by the framework renders it model-independent, i.e., it can be theoretically analyzed in its abstract formulation and then instantiated under a variety of model-dependent graph learning ...
Differently from these works, our goal here is to provide a general (model-independent) algorithmic framework for timevarying GTI from online data that can be specialized to a variety of static graph learning ...

In particular, we show how to employ our model to submit limit-orders to profit from the bid-ask spread and we also provide evidence of how HF traders may profit from liquidity incentives (liquidity rebates ...
We use data from February 2001 and February 2008 to show that while in 2001 the intra-day states with shortest average durations were also the ones with very few trades, in 2008 the vast majority of trades ...

Finally, it is pointed out that it is impossible to separate the study of Buddhist hermeneutics from the question of hermeneutics of the modern scholar who having his prejudices and preunderstandings determined ...
According to traditional exegesis, works of Buddhist philosophy are something like a samādhi, a sustained and penetrating contemplation of certain pathways of thought and insight. ...
