Waypoint-Based Reinforcement Learning for Robot Manipulation Tasks
Shaunak A. Mehta, Soheil Habibian, Dylan P. Losey
Robot arms should be able to learn new tasks. One framework here is reinforcement learning, where the robot is given a reward function that encodes the task, and the robot autonomo…
A Review of Communicating Robot Learning during Human-Robot Interaction
Soheil Habibian, Antonio Alvarez Valdivia, Laura H. Blumenschein +1
For robots to seamlessly interact with humans, we first need to make sure that humans and robots understand one another. Diverse algorithms have been developed to enable robots to…
Wrapping Haptic Displays Around Robot Arms to Communicate Learning
Antonio Alvarez Valdivia, Soheil Habibian, Carly A. Mendenhall +4
Humans can leverage physical interaction to teach robot arms. As the human kinesthetically guides the robot through demonstrations, the robot learns the desired task. While prior w…
Encouraging Human Interaction with Robot Teams: Legible and Fair Subtask Allocations
Soheil Habibian, Dylan P Losey
Recent works explore collaboration between humans and teams of robots. These approaches make sense if the human is already working with the robot team; but how should robots encour…
RILI: Robustly Influencing Latent Intent
Sagar Parekh, Soheil Habibian, Dylan P. Losey
When robots interact with human partners, often these partners change their behavior in response to the robot. On the one hand this is challenging because the robot must learn to c…
Here's What I've Learned: Asking Questions that Reveal Reward Learning
Soheil Habibian, Ananth Jonnavittula, Dylan P. Losey
Robots can learn from humans by asking questions. In these questions the robot demonstrates a few different behaviors and asks the human for their favorite. But how should robots c…
Contemporary Research Trends in Response Robotics
Mehdi Dadvar, Soheil Habibian
The multidisciplinary nature of response robotics has brought about a diversified research community with extended expertise. Motivated by the recent accelerated rate of publicatio…
Design and Implementation of a Maxi-Sized Mobile Robot (Karo) for Rescue Missions
Soheil Habibian, Mehdi Dadvar, Behzad Peykari +4
Rescue robots are expected to carry out reconnaissance and dexterity operations in unknown environments comprising unstructured obstacles. Although a wide variety of designs and im…
Analysis and Control of Fiber-Reinforced Elastomeric Enclosures (FREEs)
Soheil Habibian
While rigid robots are extensively used in various applications, they are limited in the tasks they can perform and can be unsafe in close human-robot interactions. Soft robots on…
