Active uncertainty reduction during gripping using range cameras-dual control

چکیده
This paper is'on sensor based control for guiding a robot to correct gripping of objects having a large position uncertainty. An eye-in-hand mounted range camera is considered. A probabilistic problem formulation based on the requestedposture at gripping and corresponding tolerances is presented. The problem is solved approximately using dynamic programming for a 1-degree-of-freedom manipulatol: A five-step dual control law is studied in more detail. A typical case is that in the first part of the control sequence the robot steers towards the optimal sensing position and in the last part the error with respect to the gripping posture is minimized. Since range camera sensing introduces both range dependent noise and occlusion there is a need for 'exploratory moves'. This behavior is formalized and includes 'dual control '.

Active Sensing Strategies for Robotic Platforms, with an Application in Vision-Based Gripping
We present a vision-based robotic system which uses a combination of several active sensing strategies to grip a free-standing small target object with an initially unknown position and orientation. The object position is determined and maintained with a probabilistic visual tracking system. The cameras on the robot contain a motorized zoom lens, allowing the focal lengths of the cameras to be ...

Abstract. The vast streams of data created by camera networks render unfeasible browsing all data, relying only on human resources. Automation is required for detecting and tracking multiple targets by using multiple cooperating cameras. In order to effectively track multiple targets, autonomous active camera networks require adequate scheduling and control methodologies. Scheduling algorithms ...

Active Learning methods rely on static strategies for sampling unlabeled point(s). These strategies range from uncertainty sampling and density estimation to multi-factor methods with learn-onceuse-always model parameters. This paper proposes a dynamic approach, called DUAL, where the strategy selection parameters are adaptively updated based on estimated future residual error reduction after e...
