چکیده

The ultimate goal of ambient assisted living is to help elderly people live a healthy life in the convenience of their homes by making more intelligent technology bring them a set of required assistive tools. In this paper we describe a robotic fitness coach that helps elderly people in their daily exercise activities. The robotic fitness coach learns a set of physical exercises from a professional trainer, and assists elderly subjects in performing these gestures. The gestures were selected from an actual training programme at an elderly care home in order to create a real world scenario. We optimize a function that combines robot stability and appearance similarity in order to find the best mapping from the trainers gesture, observed by an RGB-D camera, to the gesture performed by the robot to solve the mapping problem between human and robot which stems from the embodiment differences. Keywords—Robotics, Ambient Assisted Living Environments for Elderly, Imitation Learning.

Vision-based Robotic Arm Imitation by Human Gesture

One of the most efficient ways for a learning-based robotic arm to learn to process complex tasks as human, is to directly learn from observing how human complete those tasks, and then imitate. Our idea is based on success of Deep Q-Learning (DQN) algorithm according to reinforcement learning, and then extend to Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) algorithm. We developed a learning-based ...

Imitation Games with an Artificial Agent: From Mimicking to Understanding Shape-Related Iconic Gestures

We describe an anthropomorphic agent that is engaged in an imitation game with the human user. In imitating natural gestures demonstrated by the user, the agent brings together gesture recognition and synthesis on two levels of representation. On the mimicking level, the essential form features of the meaning-bearing gesture phase (stroke) are extracted and reproduced by the agent. Meaning-base...

ROBotic Open-architecture Technology for Cognition, Understanding and Behavior

We summarise two human-robot interaction studies investigating a drumming experience with Kaspar, a humanoid child-sized robot, and human participants. Our aim 1 is not to have Kaspar just replicate the human’s drumming, but to engage in a ‘social manner’, i.e. in a call and response turn-taking interaction. The interactions are discussed in terms of imitation, turntaking, and the effect of gen...
