Autonomous Robot Skill Acquisition
نویسنده
چکیده
A credible theory of intelligence must provide a satisfactory account of the wide spectrum of learning abilities displayed by humans and some other animals. One of the most impressive of these is skill acquisition—the ability to create new skills, refine them through practice, and apply them in new task contexts. This ability to retain and refine solutions to important subproblems and then employ them later lies at the heart of two important aspects of human intelligence: the ability to perpetually improve at difficult control tasks through practice, and the ability to solve increasingly difficult problems.

Toward the Autonomous Acquisition of Robot Skill
The design and coordination of independent specialized skill units (often called action primitives) is fundamental to modern robotics. However, a robot that must act in a complex environment over an extended period of time should do more than just use existing skills: it should learn new skills that increase its capabilities and facilitate later problem solving. Although robots exist that can l...
متن کاملA novel Skill-based Programming Paradigm based on Autonomous Playing and Skill-centric Testing
We introduce a novel paradigm for robot programming with which we aim to make robot programming more accessible for unexperienced users. In order to do so we incorporate two major components in one single framework: autonomous skill acquisition by robotic playing and visual programming. Simple robot program skeletons solving a task for one specific situation, so-called basic behaviours, are pro...
متن کاملAutonomous Skill Acquisition on a Mobile Manipulator
We describe a robot system that autonomously acquires skills through interaction with its environment. The robot learns to sequence the execution of a set of innate controllers to solve a task, extracts and retains components of that solution as portable skills, and then transfers those skills to reduce the time required to learn to solve a second task.
متن کاملHierarchical Skills and Skill-based Representation
Autonomous robots demand complex behavior to deal with unstructured environments. To meet these expectations, a robot needs to address a suite of problems associated with long term knowledge acquisition, representation, and execution in the presence of partial information. In this paper, we address these issues by the acquisition of broad, domain general skills using an intrinsically motivated ...
