Semantic-Based Active Perception for Humanoid Visual Tasks with Foveal Sensors
João Luzio, Alexandre Bernardino, Plinio Moreno
The aim of this work is to establish how accurately a recent semantic-based foveal active perception model is able to complete visual tasks that are regularly performed by humans,…
Pose-free object classification from surface contact features in sequences of Robotic grasps
Teresa Alves, Alexandre Bernardino, Plinio Moreno
In this work, we propose two cost efficient methods for object identification, using a multi-fingered robotic hand equipped with proprioceptive sensing. Both methods are trained on…
Finding safe 3D robot grasps through efficient haptic exploration with unscented Bayesian optimization and collision penalty
Joao Castanheira, Pedro Vicente, Ruben Martinez-Cantin +2
Robust grasping is a major, and still unsolved, problem in robotics. Information about the 3D shape of an object can be obtained either from prior knowledge (e.g., accurate models…
Gaussian Mixture Models for Affordance Learning using Bayesian Networks
Pedro Osório, Alexandre Bernardino, Ruben Martinez-Cantin +1
Affordances are fundamental descriptors of relationships between actions, objects and effects. They provide the means whereby a robot can predict effects, recognize actions, select…
Design, Development, and Evaluation of an Interactive Personalized Social Robot to Monitor and Coach Post-Stroke Rehabilitation Exercises
Min Hun Lee, Daniel P. Siewiorek, Asim Smailagic +2
Socially assistive robots are increasingly being explored to improve the engagement of older adults and people with disability in health and well-being-related exercises. However,…
Multimodal Adaptive Fusion of Face and Gait Features using Keyless attention based Deep Neural Networks for Human Identification
Ashwin Prakash, Thejaswin S, Athira Nambiar +1
Biometrics plays a significant role in vision-based surveillance applications. Soft biometrics such as gait is widely used with face in surveillance tasks like person recognition a…
