Geometrically Plausible Object Pose Refinement using Differentiable Simulation
Anil Zeybek, Rhys Newbury, Snehal Dikhale +3
State-of-the-art object pose estimation methods are prone to generating geometrically infeasible pose hypotheses. This problem is prevalent in dexterous manipulation, where estimat…
VisuoTactile 6D Pose Estimation of an In-Hand Object using Vision and Tactile Sensor Data
Snehal s. Dikhale, Karankumar Patel, Daksh Dhingra +4
Knowledge of the 6D pose of an object can benefit in-hand object manipulation. In-hand 6D object pose estimation is challenging because of heavy occlusion produced by the robot's g…
Social Mediation through Robots -- A Scoping Review on Improving Group Interactions through Directed Robot Action using an Extended Group Process Model
Thomas H. Weisswange, Hifza Javed, Manuel Dietrich +2
Group processes refer to the dynamics that occur within a group and are critical for understanding how groups function. With robots being increasingly placed within small groups, i…
HyperTaxel: Hyper-Resolution for Taxel-Based Tactile Signals Through Contrastive Learning
Hongyu Li, Snehal Dikhale, Jinda Cui +2
To achieve dexterity comparable to that of humans, robots must intelligently process tactile sensor data. Taxel-based tactile signals often have low spatial-resolution, with non-st…
