Automatic selection of coordinate systems for learning relative and absolute spatial concepts [0.03%]
坐标系统的自动选择以学习相对和绝对空间概念
Rikunari Sagara,Ryo Taguchi,Akira Taniguchi et al.
Rikunari Sagara et al.
Robots employed in homes and offices need to adaptively learn spatial concepts using user utterances. To learn and represent spatial concepts, the robot must estimate the coordinate system used by humans. For example, to represent spatial c...
Bio-Inspired Vision and Gesture-Based Robot-Robot Interaction for Human-Cooperative Package Delivery [0.03%]
