Learning Motion Reconstruction from Demonstration via Multi-Modal Soft Tactile Sensing

Josephine Anna Eleanor Hughes, Kai Christian Junge, Kieran Daniel Gilday, Cheng Pan

Learning manipulation from demonstration is a key way for humans to teach complex tasks. However, this domain mainly focuses on kinetic teaching, and does not consider imitation of interaction forces which is essential for more contact rich tasks. We propo ...

Adaptive Task-Space Force Control for Humanoid-to-Human Assistance

Anastasia Bolotnikova

We envision a humanoid robot to serve as a source of additional motion-support forces in assistance for frail persons. In this context, we present a control strategy for a humanoid to adaptively regulate its assistive force contribution. First, we identify ...

Learning from demonstration using products of experts: Applications to manipulation and task prioritization

Sylvain Calinon, Emmanuel Pignat

Probability distributions are key components of many learning from demonstration (LfD) approaches, with the spaces chosen to represent tasks playing a central role. Although the robot configuration is defined by its joint angles, end-effector poses are oft ...

Engagement in Human-Agent Interaction: An Overview

Jauwairia Nasir, Catharine Regina Monika Maria Oertel Genannt Bierbach

Engagement is a concept of the utmost importance in human-computer interaction, not only for informing the design and implementation of interfaces, but also for enabling more sophisticated interfaces capable of adapting to users. While the notion of engage ...

From standing balance to walking: A single control structure for a continuum of gaits

Auke Ijspeert, Salman Faraji, Seyed Hamed Razavi

This article presents a control algorithm framework with which a bipedal robot can perform a variety of gaits by only modifying a small set of control parameters. The controller drives a number of variables, called non-emergent variables, to their desired ...
