• Abstract: Robotic grasping is one of the most fundamental robotic manipulation tasks and has been the subject of extensive research. However, swiftly teaching a robot to grasp a novel target object in clutter remains challenging. This paper attempts to address the challenge by leveraging object attributes that facilitate recognition, grasping, and rapid adaptation to new domains. In this work, we present an end-to-end encoder-decoder network to learn attribute-based robotic grasping with data-efficient adaptation capability. We first pre-train the end-to-end model with a variety of basic objects to learn generic attribute representation for recognition and grasping. Our approach fuses the embeddings of a workspace image and a query text using a gated-attention mechanism and learns to predict instance grasping affordances. To train the joint embedding space of visual and textual attributes, the robot utilizes object persistence before and after grasping. Our model is self-supervised in a simulation that only uses basic objects of various colors and shapes but generalizes to novel objects in new environments. To further facilitate generalization, we propose two adaptation methods, adversarial adaption and one-grasp adaptation. Adversarial adaptation regulates the image encoder using augmented data of unlabeled images, whereas one-grasp adaptation updates the overall end-to-end model using augmented data from one grasp trial. Both adaptation methods are data-efficient and considerably improve instance grasping performance. Experimental results in both simulation and the real world demonstrate that our approach achieves over 81% instance grasping success rate on unknown objects, which outperforms several baselines by large margins.

  This paper presents a novel supervised learning framework that addresses the trajectory adaptation problem in Programming by Demonstrations. We exploit Equation Learner Networks to learn a set of analytical expressions and use them as basis functions. Our approach addresses three main difficulties in adapting robotic trajectories: 1) minimizing the distortion of the trajectory for new adaptations; 2) preserving the precision of the adaptations; and 3) dealing with the lack of intuition about the structure of basis functions.

  Methods for data-efficient recognition from body poses increasingly leverage skeleton sequences structured as image-like arrays. We look at this paradigm from the perspective of transformer networks, for the first time exploring visual transformers as data-efficient encoders of skeleton movement. In our pipeline, body pose sequences cast as image-like representations are converted into patch embeddings and then passed to a visual transformer backbone optimized with deep metric learning.
