A FRAMEWORK FOR LEARNING AND CONTROL IN INTELLIGENT HUMANOID ROBOTS
2005
International Journal of Humanoid Robotics
Individual robots must exploit declarative structure for planning and must learn procedural strategies that work in recognizable contexts. ...
We present several pieces of an overall framework in which a robot learns situated policies for control that exploit existing control knowledge and extend its scope. ...

InsertionNet – A Scalable Solution for Insertion
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
Complicated assembly processes can be described as a sequence of two main activities: grasping and insertion. ...
However, these approaches might be problematic in contact-rich tasks since interaction might endanger the robot and its equipment. ...

SpectGRASP: Robotic Grasping by Spectral Correlation
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We then use our previous work, Local Contact Moment (LoCoMo) similarity metric, to sequentially rank the generated grasps such that the one with maximum likelihood is executed. ...
Given a point cloud of an object, SpectGRASP extracts contact points on the object's surface matching the hand configuration. It neither requires offline training nor a-priori object models. ...

Contact localization on grasped objects using tactile sensing
2016
2016 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS)
In this paper, we present a data-driven approach for detecting and localizing contacts between a grasped object and the environment using tactile sensing. ...
We also compare the neural networks with Gaussian process regression and support vector machine classification with spatiotemporal hierarchical matching pursuit feature learning. ...

Autonomous soft hand grasping – Literature review
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
We start by briefly discussing the analytic methods that mainly exploit the hand dynamic information. Then, data-driven approaches will be our main focus. ...
Autonomous grasping remains challenging as unlike humans, robots do not possess a sophisticated sensing nor delicate interaction capability with the real environment. ...
In this section, we will discuss two popular directions, discriminative approaches and model-free grasp synthesis. ...

[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
GIFT outperforms baselines on all tasks and matches a human oracle on two of three tasks using novel tools. ...
In our experiments, we show that GIFT can leverage a sparse keypoint representation to predict grasp and interaction points to accommodate multiple tasks, such as hooking, reaching, and hammering. ...

Learning Object Affordances: From Sensory--Motor Coordination to Imitation
2008
IEEE Transactions on robotics
Since learning is based on a probabilistic model, the approach is able to deal with uncertainty, redundancy, and irrelevant information. ...
We demonstrate successful learning in the real world by having an humanoid robot interacting with objects. We illustrate the benefits of the acquired knowledge in imitation games. ...

Neural Correlates of Internal-Model Loading
2006
Current Biology
By comparing the MOVE task with the FREE and ISO tasks, we thought to isolate loading of the internal model of the object dynamics. ...
Recent behavioral studies have shown that once learned, an internal model of an object with novel dynamics can be rapidly recruited and derecruited as the object is grasped and released [10] [11] [12] ...
The procedure was approved by a local ethics committee. All subjects performed three different trial conditions: MOVE, ISO, and FREE. ...

A compliant nger closing scheme is devised by exploiting both the object shape uncertainty and tactile sensing at ngertips. ...
An important challenge in robotics is to achieve robust performance in object grasping and manipulation, dealing with noise and uncertainty. ...
At this moment, to improve the performance, we adopt a local derivative-free optimization technique, called Constrained Optimization by Linear Approximation (COBYLA) [60] . ...
