Poke and Strike: Learning Task-Informed Exploration Policies
Marina Y. Aoyama, Joao Moura, Juan Del Aguila Ferrandis +1
In many dynamic robotic tasks, such as striking pucks into a goal outside the reachable workspace, the robot must first identify the relevant physical properties of the object for…
Few-shot transfer of tool-use skills using human demonstrations with proximity and tactile sensing
Marina Y. Aoyama, Sethu Vijayakumar, Tetsuya Narita
Tools extend the manipulation abilities of robots, much like they do for humans. Despite human expertise in tool manipulation, teaching robots these skills faces challenges. The co…
Few-Shot Learning of Force-Based Motions From Demonstration Through Pre-training of Haptic Representation
Marina Y. Aoyama, João Moura, Namiko Saito +1
In many contact-rich tasks, force sensing plays an essential role in adapting the motion to the physical properties of the manipulated object. To enable robots to capture the under…
Training Humans to Train Robots Dynamic Motor Skills
Marina Y. Aoyama, Matthew Howard
Learning from demonstration (LfD) is commonly considered to be a natural and intuitive way to allow novice users to teach motor skills to robots. However, it is important to acknow…
