• Abstract: Children learn continually by asking questions about the concepts they are most curious about. With robots becoming an integral part of our society, they must also learn unknown concepts continually by asking humans questions. This paper presents a novel framework for curiosity-driven online learning of objects. The paper utilizes a recent state-of-the-art approach for continual learning and adapts it for online learning of objects. The paper further develops a self-supervised technique to find most of the uncertain objects in an environment by utilizing an internal representation of previously learned classes. We test our approach on a benchmark dataset for continual learning on robots. Our results show that our curiosity-driven online learning approach beats random sampling and softmax-based uncertainty sampling in terms of classification accuracy and the total number of classes learned.

  We take a human-centered approach to continual learning, to understand how humans teach continual learning robots over the long term. We conducted an in-person study with 40 participants that interacted with a continual learning robot in 200 sessions. An extensive qualitative and quantitative analysis of the data collected in the study shows that there is significant variation among the teaching styles of individual users.

• Learning by Asking Questions for Knowledge-based Novel Object Recognition [64.55573343404572]
  In real-world object recognition, there are numerous object classes to be recognized. Conventional image recognition based on supervised learning can only recognize object classes that exist in the training data, and thus has limited applicability in the real world. Inspired by this, we study a framework for acquiring external knowledge through question generation that would help the model instantly recognize novel objects. Our pipeline consists of two components: the Object-based object recognition, and the Question Generator, which generates knowledge-aware questions to acquire novel knowledge.
