چکیده

Interacting with unknown objects, and learning and producing e↵ective grasping procedures in particular, are challenging problems for robots. This paper proposes an intrinsically motivated reinforcement learning mechanism for learning to grasp uknown objects. The mechanism uses frustration to determine when grasping of an object is not possible. The critical threshold of frustration is dynamically regulated by impulsiveness of the robot. Here, the artificial emotions regulate the learning rate according to the current task and performance of the robot. The proposed mechanism is tested in a real world scenario where the robot, using the grasp pairs generated in simulation, has to learn which objects are graspable. The results shows that the robot equipped with frustration and impulsiveness learns faster than the robot with standard action selection strategies providing some evidence that the use of artificial emotions can improve the learning time.

Learning to grasp from point clouds

We study how to encode the local information of the point clouds in such a way that a robot can learn by experimentation the graspability of objects. After learning, the robot should be able to predict the graspability of unknown objects. We consider two well known descriptors in the computer vision community: Spin images and shape context. In addition, we consider two recent and efficient desc...
