Comparing Subjective Perceptions of Robot-to-Human Handover Trajectories

Alexander Calvert, Wesley Chan, Tin Tran +4

Robots must move legibly around people for safety reasons, especially for tasks where physical contact is possible. One such task is handovers, which requires implicit communicatio…

In-Hand Gravitational Pivoting Using Tactile Sensing

Jason Toskov, Rhys Newbury, Mustafa Mukadam +2

We study gravitational pivoting, a constrained version of in-hand manipulation, where we aim to control the rotation of an object around the grip point of a parallel gripper. To ac…

Semantic Segmentation for Partially Occluded Apple Trees Based on Deep Learning

Zijue Chen, David Ting, Rhys Newbury +1

Fruit tree pruning and fruit thinning require a powerful vision system that can provide high resolution segmentation of the fruit trees and their branches. However, recent works on…

Minimizing Labeling Effort for Tree Skeleton Segmentation using an Automated Iterative Training Methodology

Keenan Granland, Rhys Newbury, David Ting +1

Training of convolutional neural networks for semantic segmentation requires accurate pixel-wise labeling which requires large amounts of human effort. The human-in-the-loop method…
