Learning from Demonstration (LfD) provides an intuitive and fast approach to program robotic manipulators. Task parameterized representations allow easy adaptation to new scenes and online observations. However, this approach has been…

Recent evidence has shown that, contrary to expectations, it is difficult for users, especially novices, to teach robots tasks through LfD. This paper introduces a framework that leverages MT algorithms to train novices to become better…

Learning from Demonstration (LfD) is a paradigm that allows robots to learn complex manipulation tasks that can not be easily scripted, but can be demonstrated by a human teacher. One of the challenges of LfD is to enable robots to acquire…

We present a novel Learning from Demonstration (LfD) method, Deformable Manipulation from Demonstrations (DMfD), to solve deformable manipulation tasks using states or images as inputs, given expert demonstrations. Our method uses…

Learning from demonstration (LfD) provides a fast, intuitive and efficient framework to program robot skills, which has gained growing interest both in research and industrial applications. Most complex manipulation tasks are long-term and…

In robotics, there is need of an interactive and expedite learning method as experience is expensive. Robot Learning from Demonstration (RLfD) enables a robot to learn a policy from demonstrations performed by teacher. RLfD enables a human…

With growing access to versatile robotics, it is beneficial for end users to be able to teach robots tasks without needing to code a control policy. One possibility is to teach the robot through successful task executions. However,…

In the learning from demonstration (LfD) paradigm, understanding and evaluating the demonstrated behaviors plays a critical role in extracting control policies for robots. Without this knowledge, a robot may infer incorrect reward functions…

Learning from Demonstration (LfD) is a popular method of reproducing and generalizing robot skills from human-provided demonstrations. In this paper, we propose a novel optimization-based LfD method that encodes demonstrations as elastic…

Learning from Demonstration (LfD) algorithms enable humans to teach new skills to robots through demonstrations. The learned skills can be robustly reproduced from the identical or near boundary conditions (e.g., initial point). However,…

Humans generally teach their fellow collaborators to perform tasks through a small number of demonstrations. The learnt task is corrected or extended to meet specific task goals by means of coaching. Adopting a similar framework for…

Human bimanual manipulation can perform more complex tasks than a simple combination of two single arms, which is credited to the spatio-temporal coordination between the arms. However, the description of bimanual coordination is still an…

Recent years have seen a growth in the number of industrial robots working closely with end-users such as factory workers. This growing use of collaborative robots has been enabled in part due to the availability of end-user robot…

Learning from Demonstration (LfD) techniques enable robots to learn and generalize tasks from user demonstrations, eliminating the need for coding expertise among end-users. One established technique to implement LfD in robots is to encode…

We present a Learning from Demonstration (LfD) framework that achieves one-shot generalization in multi-stage, contact-rich manipulation tasks. Central to our approach is the utilization of environmental constraints as the inductive bias.…

Learning from Demonstration (LfD) seeks to democratize robotics by enabling non-roboticist end-users to teach robots to perform novel tasks by providing demonstrations. However, as demonstrators are typically non-experts, modern LfD…

Many advanced Learning from Demonstration (LfD) methods consider the decomposition of complex, real-world tasks into simpler sub-tasks. By reusing the corresponding sub-policies within and between tasks, they provide training data for each…

Learning from demonstrations (LfD) enables humans to easily teach collaborative robots (cobots) new motions that can be generalized to new task configurations without retraining. However, state-of-the-art LfD methods require manually tuning…

As robots enter human environments, they will be expected to accomplish a tremendous range of tasks. It is not feasible for robot designers to pre-program these behaviors or know them in advance, so one way to address this is through…

Eye-in-hand cameras have shown promise in enabling greater sample efficiency and generalization in vision-based robotic manipulation. However, for robotic imitation, it is still expensive to have a human teleoperator collect large amounts…
