Learning Dynamic Tasks on a Large-scale Soft Robot in a Handful of Trials
Sicelukwanda Zwane, Daniel Cheney, Curtis C. Johnson +4
Soft robots offer more flexibility, compliance, and adaptability than traditional rigid robots. They are also typically lighter and cheaper to manufacture. However, their use in re…
A Unifying Variational Framework for Gaussian Process Motion Planning
Lucas Cosier, Rares Iordan, Sicelukwanda Zwane +5
To control how a robot moves, motion planning algorithms must compute paths in high-dimensional state spaces while accounting for physical constraints related to motors and joints,…
Grasp Transfer based on Self-Aligning Implicit Representations of Local Surfaces
Ahmet Tekden, Marc Peter Deisenroth, Yasemin Bekiroglu
Objects we interact with and manipulate often share similar parts, such as handles, that allow us to transfer our actions flexibly due to their shared functionality. This work addr…
Neural Field Movement Primitives for Joint Modelling of Scenes and Motions
Ahmet Tekden, Marc Peter Deisenroth, Yasemin Bekiroglu
This paper presents a novel Learning from Demonstration (LfD) method that uses neural fields to learn new skills efficiently and accurately. It achieves this by utilizing a shared…
Sliding Touch-based Exploration for Modeling Unknown Object Shape with Multi-fingered Hands
Yiting Chen, Ahmet Ercan Tekden, Marc Peter Deisenroth +1
Efficient and accurate 3D object shape reconstruction contributes significantly to the success of a robot's physical interaction with its environment. Acquiring accurate shape info…
