Recent advances in gesture recognition made the problem of controlling a humanoid robot in the most natural possible way an interesting challenge. Learning from Demonstration fie...
Abstract. This paper presents an expressive gesture model that generates communicative gestures accompanying speech for the humanoid robot Nao. The research work focuses mainly on ...
Several machine learning techniques are used to model the behavior of children with autism interacting with a humanoid robot, comparing a static model to a dynamic model using han...
Abstract--This paper proposes a unified optimization framework to solve the time parameterization problem of humanoid robot paths. Even though the time parameterization problem is ...
A method of regrasp planning for humanoid robot manipulation is proposed. We adopt pivoting manipulation for the humanoid robot to move a bulky object without lifting in a stable a...
Reliable and efficient navigation with a humanoid robot is a difficult task. First, the motion commands are executed rather inaccurately due to backlash in the joints or foot slipp...
Abstract In this paper we address whole-body manipulation of bulky objects by a humanoid robot. We adopt a "pivoting" manipulation method that allows the humanoid to disp...
— Humanoid robots are expected to share human environments in the future and it is important to ensure safety of their operation. A serious threat to safety is the fall of a huma...
Abstract— Humanoid robots are appealing due to their inherent dexterity. However, these potential benefits may only be realized if the corresponding motion synthesis procedure i...
