Abstract. In previous work [4] a framework was demonstrated that allows an autonomous robot to automatically synthesize physically-realistic models of its own body. Here it is demo...
— We present a learning mechanism, Socially Guided Exploration, in which a robot learns new tasks through a combination of self-exploration and social interaction. The system’s...
We present a general-purpose framework for updating a robot’s observation model within the context of planning and execution. Traditional plan execution relies on monitoring plan...
