Towards affordance detection for robot manipulation using affordance for parts and parts for affordance

S Rezapour Lakani, AJ Rodríguez-Sánchez… - Autonomous Robots, 2019 - Springer
As robots start to interact with their environments, they need to reason about the affordances
of objects in those environments. In most cases, affordances can be inferred only from parts …

POMDP planning under object composition uncertainty: Application to robotic manipulation

J Pajarinen, J Lundell, V Kyrki - IEEE Transactions on Robotics, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Manipulating unknown objects in a cluttered environment is difficult because segmentation
of the scene into objects, that is, object composition, is uncertain. Due to the uncertainty …

Learning to recognize novel objects in one shot through human-robot interactions in natural language dialogues
