World Models and Predictive Coding for Cognitive and Developmental Robotics: Frontiers and Challenges

no code implementations14 Jan 2023 Tadahiro Taniguchi, Shingo Murata, Masahiro Suzuki, Dimitri Ognibene, Pablo Lanillos, Emre Ugur, Lorenzo Jamone, Tomoaki Nakamura, Alejandra Ciria, Bruno Lara, Giovanni Pezzulo

Therefore, in this paper, we clarify the definitions, relationships, and status of current research on these topics, as well as missing pieces of world models and predictive coding in conjunction with crucially related concepts such as the free-energy principle and active inference in the context of cognitive and developmental robotics.

Visuo-Haptic Object Perception for Robots: An Overview

no code implementations22 Mar 2022 Nicolás Navarro-Guerrero, Sibel Toprak, Josip Josifovski, Lorenzo Jamone

The object perception capabilities of humans are impressive, and this becomes even more evident when trying to develop solutions with a similar proficiency in autonomous robots.

Robust and fast generation of top and side grasps for unknown objects

no code implementations18 Jul 2019 Brice Denoun, Beatriz Leon, Claudio Zito, Rustam Stolkin, Lorenzo Jamone, Miles Hansard

In this work, we present a geometry-based grasping algorithm that is capable of efficiently generating both top and side grasps for unknown objects, using a single view RGB-D camera, and of selecting the most promising one.

Learning at the Ends: From Hand to Tool Affordances in Humanoid Robots

no code implementations9 Apr 2018 Giovanni Saponaro, Pedro Vicente, Atabak Dehban, Lorenzo Jamone, Alexandre Bernardino, José Santos-Victor

One of the open challenges in designing robots that operate successfully in the unpredictable human environment is how to make them able to predict what actions they can perform on objects, and what their effects will be, i. e., the ability to perceive object affordances.

Anticipation in Human-Robot Cooperation: A Recurrent Neural Network Approach for Multiple Action Sequences Prediction

1 code implementation28 Feb 2018 Paul Schydlo, Mirko Rakovic, Lorenzo Jamone, José Santos-Victor

Recent approaches based on neural networks have led to encouraging results in the human action prediction problem both in continuous and discrete spaces.

Symbol Emergence in Cognitive Developmental Systems: a Survey

no code implementations26 Jan 2018 Tadahiro Taniguchi, Emre Ugur, Matej Hoffmann, Lorenzo Jamone, Takayuki Nagai, Benjamin Rosman, Toshihiko Matsuka, Naoto Iwahashi, Erhan Oztop, Justus Piater, Florentin Wörgötter

However, the symbol grounding problem was originally posed to connect symbolic AI and sensorimotor information and did not consider many interdisciplinary phenomena in human communication and dynamic symbol systems in our society, which semiotics considered.

Interactive Robot Learning of Gestures, Language and Affordances

no code implementations24 Nov 2017 Giovanni Saponaro, Lorenzo Jamone, Alexandre Bernardino, Giampiero Salvi

A growing field in robotics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) research is human-robot collaboration, whose target is to enable effective teamwork between humans and robots.

Unscented Bayesian Optimization for Safe Robot Grasping

no code implementations7 Mar 2016 José Nogueira, Ruben Martinez-Cantin, Alexandre Bernardino, Lorenzo Jamone

We address the robot grasp optimization problem of unknown objects considering uncertainty in the input space.
