Learning to Fold Real Garments with One Arm: A Case Study in Cloud-Based Robotics Research
Ryan Hoque, Kaushik Shivakumar, Shrey Aeron +7
Autonomous fabric manipulation is a longstanding challenge in robotics, but evaluating progress is difficult due to the cost and diversity of robot hardware. Using Reach, a cloud r…
Implicit Kinematic Policies: Unifying Joint and Cartesian Action Spaces in End-to-End Robot Learning
Aditya Ganapathi, Pete Florence, Jake Varley +3
Action representation is an important yet often overlooked aspect in end-to-end robot learning with deep networks. Choosing one action space over another (e.g. target joint positio…
VisuoSpatial Foresight for Physical Sequential Fabric Manipulation
Ryan Hoque, Daniel Seita, Ashwin Balakrishna +6
Robotic fabric manipulation has applications in home robotics, textiles, senior care and surgery. Existing fabric manipulation techniques, however, are designed for specific tasks,…
Learning Dense Visual Correspondences in Simulation to Smooth and Fold Real Fabrics
Aditya Ganapathi, Priya Sundaresan, Brijen Thananjeyan +10
Robotic fabric manipulation is challenging due to the infinite dimensional configuration space, self-occlusion, and complex dynamics of fabrics. There has been significant prior wo…
VisuoSpatial Foresight for Multi-Step, Multi-Task Fabric Manipulation
Ryan Hoque, Daniel Seita, Ashwin Balakrishna +6
Robotic fabric manipulation has applications in home robotics, textiles, senior care and surgery. Existing fabric manipulation techniques, however, are designed for specific tasks,…
Deep Imitation Learning of Sequential Fabric Smoothing From an Algorithmic Supervisor
Daniel Seita, Aditya Ganapathi, Ryan Hoque +11
Sequential pulling policies to flatten and smooth fabrics have applications from surgery to manufacturing to home tasks such as bed making and folding clothes. Due to the complexit…
