Visual relocalization is a fundamental problem in computer vision and robotics. Recently, regression-based methods become popular and they can be categorized into two classes: absolute pose regression and scene coordinate regression. In this work, we present a combined regression network that jointly learns scene coordinate regression and absolute pose regression for single-image visual relocalization. The proposed network composes of a feature encoder and two regression branches with uncertainty modeling. In particular, we design a deep feature conditioning module, aiming at propagating the coarse pose information in absolute pose regression to inform the predictions in scene coordinate regression. The proposed network is trained in an end-to-end fashion to learn both regression tasks. Moreover, we propose an uncertainty-driven RANSAC algorithm that incorporates the predicted scene coordinates and their uncertainties to solve the camera pose during inference. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first to combine scene coordinate regression and pose regression in a hierarchical framework for visual relocalization. Experiments on indoor and outdoor benchmarks demonstrate the effectiveness and the superiority of the proposed method over the state-of-the-art methods.

Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) experience deficits in verbal and nonverbal communication skills including motor control, turn-taking, and emotion recognition. Innovative technology, such as socially assistive robots, has shown to be a viable method for Autism therapy. This paper presents a novel robot-based music-therapy platform for modeling and improving the social responses and behaviors of children with ASD. Our autonomous social interactive system consists of three modules. Module 1 provides an autonomous initiative positioning system for the robot, NAO, to properly localize and play the instrument (Xylophone) using the robot's arms. Module 2 allows NAO to play customized songs composed by individuals. Module 3 provides a real-life music therapy experience to the users. We adopted Short-time Fourier Transform and Levenshtein distance to fulfill the design requirements: a)"music detection" and b)"smart scoring and feedback", which allows NAO to understand music and provide additional practice and oral feedback to the users as applicable. We designed and implemented six Human-Robot-Interaction (HRI) sessions including four intervention sessions. Nine children with ASD and seven Typically Developing participated in a total of fifty HRI experimental sessions. Using our platform, we collected and analyzed data on social behavioral changes and emotion recognition using Electrodermal Activity (EDA) signals. The results of our experiments demonstrate most of the participants were able to complete motor control tasks with 70% accuracy. Six out of the 9 ASD participants showed stable turn-taking behavior when playing music. The results of automated emotion classification using Support Vector Machines illustrates that emotional arousal in the ASD group can be detected and well recognized via EDA bio-signals. In summary, the results of our data analyses, including emotion classification using EDA signals, indicate that the proposed robot-music based therapy p

We generalize the principle of extension and controller design using this principle for nonlinear systems. We first define principles of inclusion and extension for nonlinear time-invariant (NLTI) systems. Thereafter, we present the necessary and sufficient conditions for a system to be an extension of another and show that when the expanded system is an extension of the original system, any controller designed for the expanded system can be contracted for implementation on the original system. Subsequently, we demonstrate how an overlappingly decomposed NLTI system can be expanded so that the expanded system is an extension of the original system, how decentralized controllers can be designed for the expanded system, and how these controllers can be contracted for implementation on the original system. An example is also provided to illustrate the extension and contraction concepts and show controller design using the proposed principles.

Dense map that contains the surrounding geometry and vision information of a robot is widely used for path planning, navigation, obstacle avoidance and other applications. Considering the performance of the processing unit mounted on the robot is limited, mapping algorithm has to make compromise by sacrificing speed and precision. It will be more challenging when the dense mapping scene is very large because the memory consumption will be greatly increased and the map is difficult to be extended if beyonding the initial map. To suppress the negative impact from the increased map scale, we proposed a novel block mapping approach to generate the dense map in large scale of scene. In this work, the elevation map is selected as the base dense map. The entire elevation map is segmented into numerous block maps of which size is much smaller than that of the entire map. The present moment of lidar and vision measurements are used to generate the local elevation map. The local elevation map is used to update block maps which are adaptively generated along the motion trajectory. A memory-disk interaction mechanism, which the block maps will be loaded to memory or saved to local disk when needed, is introduced. Our block mapping approach is tested on the KITTI datasets, and the results demonstrate that the mapping approach can stably operate in a large scale of scene with a much smaller consumption of memory. © 2022 IEEE.

This paper proposes a neural network-based user simulator that can provide a multimodal interactive environment for training Reinforcement Learning (RL) agents in collaborative tasks involving multiple modes of communication. The simulator is trained on the existing ELDERLY-AT-HOME corpus and accommodates multiple modalities such as language, pointing gestures, and haptic-ostensive actions. The paper also presents a novel multimodal data augmentation approach, which addresses the challenge of using a limited dataset due to the expensive and time-consuming nature of collecting human demonstrations. Overall, the study highlights the potential for using RL and multimodal user simulators in developing and improving domestic assistive robots.

The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for autonomous inspection tasks has become more prominent in recent years. To make the most of the autonomous inspection, the parameters governing control, perception and navigation of the robot should be tuned precisely to the necessary task. Currently, the use of motion capture (mocap) systems is the norm when performing the stringent evaluation of simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) and advanced controllers. In this paper, we address the use of a cost-effective solution to ground-truthing and evaluation of said algorithms in large industrial environments. To this end, we use fiducial markers, deployed in known locations, in order to estimate the pose of the vehicle in 6 degrees-of-freedom (6DOF) and test them against a state-of-the-art mocap system. We additionally test the method in the field, by deploying the markers to the environment of interest and applying widely used SLAM implementations to confirm its efficacy by evaluating their performance in two emulated inspection task scenarios. We find that our method is comparable in performance to the state-of-the-art mocap systems without the need for laborious calibration and is capable of providing a pose estimate for evaluating SLAM and underlying UAV control methods.

Efficient Object Rearrangement via Multi-view Fusion

作者： Huang, Dehao Tang, Chao Zhang, Hong Shenzhen Key Laboratory of Robotics and Computer Vision Southern University of Science and Technology Shenzhen China Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering Southern University of Science and Technology Shenzhen China

The prospect of assistive robots aiding in object organization has always been compelling. In an image-goal setting, the robot rearranges the current scene to match the single image captured from the goal scene. The key to an image-goal rearrangement system is estimating the desired placement pose of each object based on the single goal image and observations from the current scene. In order to establish sufficient associations for accurate estimation, the system should observe an object from a viewpoint similar to that in the goal image. Existing image-goal rearrangement systems, due to their reliance on a fixed viewpoint for perception, often require redundant manipulations to randomly adjust an object’s pose for a better perspective. Addressing this inefficiency, we introduce a novel object rearrangement system that employs multi-view fusion. By observing the current scene from multiple viewpoints before manipulating objects, our approach can estimate a more accurate pose without redundant manipulation times. A standard visual localization pipeline at the object level is developed to capitalize on the advantages of multi-view observations. Simulation results demonstrate that the efficiency of our system outperforms existing single-view systems. The effectiveness of our system is further validated in a physical experiment.

The focus of this paper is to address a novel control technique for stability and transparency analysis of bilateral telerobotic systems in the presence of data loss and time delay in the communication channel. Different control strategies have been reported to compensate the effects of time delay in the communication channel;however, most of them result in poor performance under data loss. First, a model for data loss is proposed using a finite series representation of a set of periodic continuous *** improve the performance and data reconstruction, a holder circuits is also introduced. The passivity of the overall system is provided via the wave variable technique based on the proposed model for the data loss. The stability analysis of the system is then derived using the Lyapunov theorem under the time delay and the data loss. Finally, experimental results are given to illustrate the capability of the proposed control technique.

The increasing demand for heterogeneous functionality in the automotive industry and the evolution of chip manufac-turing processes have led to the transition from federated to integrated critical real-time embedded systems (CRTESs). This leads to higher integration challenges of conventional timing predictability techniques due to access contention on shared resources, which can be resolved by providing system-level observability and controllability in hardware. We focus on the interconnect as a shared resource and propose AXI-REALM, a lightweight, modular, and technology - independent real-time extension to industry-standard AXI4 interconnects, available open-source. AXI-REALM uses a credit-based mechanism to distribute and control the bandwidth in a multi-subordinate system on periodic time windows, proactively prevents denial of service from malicious actors in the system, and tracks each manager's access and interference statistics for optimal budget and period selection. We provide detailed performance and implementation cost assessment in a 12nm node and an end-to-end functional case study implementing AXI-REALM into an open-source Linux-capable RISC-V SoC. In a system with a general-purpose core and a hardware accelerator's DMA engine causing interference on the interconnect, AXI-REALM achieves fair bandwidth distribution among managers, allowing the core to recover 68.2 % of its performance compared to the case without contention. Moreover, near-ideal performance (above 95 %) can be achieved by distributing the available bandwidth in favor of the core, improving the worst-case memory access latency from 264 to below eight cycles. Our approach minimizes buffering compared to other solutions and introduces only 2.45 % area overhead compared to the original SoC.

We propose a learning from demonstration (LfD) approach that utilizes an interaction (admittance) controller and two force sensors for the robot to learn the force applied by an expert from demonstrations in contact-rich tasks such as robotic polishing. Our goal is to equip the robot with the haptic expertise of an expert by using a machine learning (ML) approach while providing the flexibility for the user to intervene in the task at any point when necessary by using an interaction controller. The utilization of two force sensors, a pivotal concept in this study, allows us to gather environmental data crucial for effectively training our system to accommodate workpieces with diverse material and surface properties and maintain the contact of polisher with their surfaces. In the demonstration phase of our approach where an expert guiding the robot to perform a polishing task, we record the force applied by the human (F h ) and the interaction force (F int ) via two separate force sensors for the polishing trajectory followed by the expert to extract information about the environment (F env =F h −F int ). An admittance controller, which takes the interaction force as the input is used to output a reference velocity to be tracked by the internal motion controller (PID) of the robot to regulate the interactions between the polisher and the surface of a workpiece. A multilayer perceptron (MLP) model was trained to learn the human force profile based on the inputs of Cartesian position and velocity of the polisher, environmental force (F env ), and friction coefficient between the polisher and the surface to the model. During the deployment phase, in which the robot executes the task autonomously, the human force estimated by our system $\left({{{\hat F}_h}}\right)$ is utilized to balance the reaction forces coming from the environment and calculate the force $\left({{{\hat F}_h} - {F_{env}}}\right)$ needs to be inputted to the admittance controller to gene
