IRG presenting at RSS 2018

June 22, 2018

Four members of the Interactive Robotics Group --- Claudia Pérez D'Arpino, Tariq Iqbal, Ankit Shah, and Vaibhav Unhelkar --- will be presenting their work at the Robotics: Science and Systems from June 26th to May 30th.

Tariq Iqbal will be presenting the paper titled "Toward a Real-time Activity Segmentation Method for Human-Robot Teaming" in the workshop of "Towards a Framework for Joint Action, What about Theory of Mind?" This workshop will be on June 29th, 2018, in GHC 5222, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. This paper presents a real-time activity segmentation algorithm which can start segmenting activities simply by observing a portion of the initial trajectory data.

Ankit Shah will be presenting his paper titled "Towards Specification Learning from Demonstrations" in the workshop of "Learning from Demonstrations for high-level robotics tasks". This workshop will be on June 29th, 2018, in GHC 4307, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. Ankit's paper presents a probabilistic model for inferring task specification as a temporal logic formula.

Vaibhav Unhelkar will be presenting his abstract titled "Enabling Effective Information Sharing in Human-Robot Teams" in the workshop of RSS Pioneers. This workshop will be on 17:00 pm - 18:00 pm, June 25th, 2018, in Newell-Simon Hall Atrium, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. Vaibhav will present his work on developing algorithms that enable robots to leverage communication to learn human decision-making models and effectively share information with humans.
