Throwing Objects into A Moving Basket While Avoiding Obstacles
Hamidreza Kasaei, Mohammadreza Kasaei
The capabilities of a robot will be increased significantly by exploiting throwing behavior. In particular, throwing will enable robots to rapidly place the object into the target…
Enhancing Fine-Grained 3D Object Recognition using Hybrid Multi-Modal Vision Transformer-CNN Models
Songsong Xiong, Georgios Tziafas, Hamidreza Kasaei
Robots operating in human-centered environments, such as retail stores, restaurants, and households, are often required to distinguish between similar objects in different contexts…
GraspCaps: A Capsule Network Approach for Familiar 6DoF Object Grasping
Tomas van der Velde, Hamed Ayoobi, Hamidreza Kasaei
As robots become more widely available outside industrial settings, the need for reliable object grasping and manipulation is increasing. In such environments, robots must be able…
Enhancing Interpretability and Interactivity in Robot Manipulation: A Neurosymbolic Approach
Georgios Tziafas, Hamidreza Kasaei
In this paper we present a neurosymbolic architecture for coupling language-guided visual reasoning with robot manipulation. A non-expert human user can prompt the robot using unco…
Early or Late Fusion Matters: Efficient RGB-D Fusion in Vision Transformers for 3D Object Recognition
Georgios Tziafas, Hamidreza Kasaei
The Vision Transformer (ViT) architecture has established its place in computer vision literature, however, training ViTs for RGB-D object recognition remains an understudied topic…
IPPO: Obstacle Avoidance for Robotic Manipulators in Joint Space via Improved Proximal Policy Optimization
Yongliang Wang, Hamidreza Kasaei
Reaching tasks with random targets and obstacles is a challenging task for robotic manipulators. In this study, we propose a novel model-free reinforcement learning approach based…
