  2. 11. Fitting Objects Into Holes : On the Development of Spatial Cognition Skills

    Author : Helena Örnkloo; Claes von Hofsten; Kerstin Rosander; Jeffrey Lockman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Psychology; toddlers; action planning; manipulation; means-end relationships; mental rotation; choice; positive-negative form; Psykologi;

    Abstract : Children’s ability to manipulate objects is the end-point of several important developments. To imagine objects in different positions greatly improves children’s action capabilities. They can relate objects to each other successfully, and plan actions involving more than one object. READ MORE

  4. 12. Holistic Grasping: Affordances, Grasp Semantics, Task Constraints

    Author : Martin Hjelm; Danica Kragic; Markus Vincze; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; robotics; robotic grasping; grasping; cognition; embodied cognition; computer vision; machine learning; artificial intelligence; AI; Gaussian process; Gaussian process latent variable model; GPLVM; 3D vision; point cloud features; robotik; manipulation; datorseende; maskininlärning; artificiell intelligens; kognition; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : Most of us perform grasping actions over a thousand times per day without giving it much consideration, be it from driving to drinking coffee. Learning robots the same ease when it comes to grasping has been a goal for the robotics research community for decades. READ MORE

  5. 13. Representation and Learning for Robotic Grasping, Caging, and Planning

    Author : Johannes Andreas Stork; Danica Kragic; Wolfram Burgard; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Grasping; Caging; Planning; State Representation; Optimization; Topology; Manipulation; Reinforcement Learning; Datalogi; Computer Science;

    Abstract : Robots need to grasp, handle, and manipulate objects, navigate their environment, and understand the state of the world around them. Like all artificial intelligence agents, they have to make predictions, formulate goals, reason about actions, and make plans. READ MORE

  6. 14. Path-Connectivity of the Free Space : Caging and Path Existence

    Author : Anastasiia Varava; Danica Kragic; Alberto Rodriguez; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Robotics; Manipulation; Caging; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : The notion of configuration space is a tool that allows to reason aboutan object’s mobility in a unified manner. The problem of verifying path non-existence can be considered as dual to path planning. READ MORE

  7. 15. Robot Manipulation Planning Among Obstacles: Grasping, Placing and Rearranging

    Author : Joshua Alexander Haustein; Danica Kragic; Kostas E. Bekris; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; robot manipulation planning; sampling-based planning; fingertip grasp planning; placement planning; rearrangement planning; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Abstract : This thesis presents planning algorithms for three different robot manipulation tasks: fingertip grasping, object placing and rearranging. Herein, we place special attention on addressing these tasks in the presence of obstacles. READ MORE
