• Abstract summary: We extend Interaction Primitives to periodic movement regimes, i.e., walking. We show that this model is particularly well-suited for learning data-driven, customized models of human walking. We also demonstrate how the same framework can be used to learn controllers for a robotic prosthesis.

• Abstract: We propose in this paper Periodic Interaction Primitives - a probabilistic framework that can be used to learn compact models of periodic behavior. Our approach extends existing formulations of Interaction Primitives to periodic movement regimes, i.e., walking. We show that this model is particularly well-suited for learning data-driven, customized models of human walking, which can then be used for generating predictions over future states or for inferring latent, biomechanical variables. We also demonstrate how the same framework can be used to learn controllers for a robotic prosthesis using an imitation learning approach. Results in experiments with human participants indicate that Periodic Interaction Primitives efficiently generate predictions and ankle angle control signals for a robotic prosthetic ankle, with MAE of 2.21 degrees in 0.0008s per inference. Performance degrades gracefully in the presence of noise or sensor fall outs. Compared to alternatives, this algorithm functions 20 times faster and performed 4.5 times more accurately on test subjects.

  We develop a deep learning-based social cue integration model for saliency prediction to predict scanpaths in videos. We evaluate our approach on gaze of dynamic social scenes, observed under the free-viewing condition. Results indicate that a single unified model, trained on all the observers' scanpaths, performs on par or better than individually trained models.
