Robots must be able to adapt gracefully to frequent and |
|
dramatic changes in their workspace if they are to |
|
operate successfully in human-centered environments, as |
|
opposed to controlled industrial settings. At the MIT |
|
Humanoid Robotics Group, investigators are developing |
|
methods that permit their robots to deduce the structure |
|
of novel activities, adopt the vocabulary appropriate for |
|
communication about the task at hand, and learn about the |
|
appearance and behavior of unfamiliar objects. The latter |
|
ability is discussed in this paper. The humanoid robot, |
|
Cog, uses active exploration to resolve visual ambiguity |
|
in its workspace. As Cog accumulates experience, it |
|
clusters episodes of object interaction to learn the |
|
appearance and properties of novel, unfamiliar objects. |
|
This process is called open object recognition. An |
|
operator can then introduce names for objects to |
|
facilitate further task-related communication. |
