In this paper we study the personalized book recommender system in a child-robot interactive environment. Firstly, we propose a novel text search algorithm using an inverse filtering mechanism that improves the efficiency. Secondly, we…
Programming a robot to deal with open-ended tasks remains a challenge, in particular if the robot has to manipulate objects. Launching, grasping, pushing or any other object interaction can be simulated but the corresponding models are not…
Robots that can operate autonomously in a human living environment are necessary to have the ability to handle various tasks flexibly. One crucial element is coordinated bimanual movements that enable functions that are difficult to perform…
Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) have been a rapidly expanding research topic for the past decade. Unlike their counterpart, the automated guided vehicle (AGV), AMRs can make decisions and do not need any previously installed infrastructure…
A Robotic Mobile Fulfillment System is a robotised parts-to-picker system that is particularly well-suited for e-commerce warehousing. One distinguishing feature of this type of warehouse is its high storage modularity. Numerous robots are…
This paper introduces Amazon Robotic Manipulation Benchmark (ARMBench), a large-scale, object-centric benchmark dataset for robotic manipulation in the context of a warehouse. Automation of operations in modern warehouses requires a robotic…
In logistics warehouse, since many objects are randomly stacked on shelves, it becomes difficult for a robot to safely extract one of the objects without other objects falling from the shelf. In previous works, a robot needed to extract the…
