robots and learning
Robots have access to physics, and physics is a good teacher
Physics won’t let you believe the wrong thing for long
Robot perception should ideally integrate experimentation, or at least learn from (non-fatal) mistakes

a challenge: object perception
Object perception is a key enabling technology
Many components:– Object detection– Object segmentation– Object recognition
Typical systems require human-prepared training data; can we use autonomous experimentation?

Perceiving through experiment – Example: active segmentation
Learning new perceptual abilities opportunistically– Example: detecting edge orientation– Example: object detection, segmentation, recognition
An architecture for opportunistic learning– Example: learning about, and through, search activity

active segmentation Object boundaries are not
always easy to detect visually
Solution: Cog sweeps arm through ambiguous area
Any resulting object motion helps segmentation
Robot can learn to recognize and segment object without further contact

active segmentation Detect contact between
arm and object using fast, coarse processing on optic flow signal
Do detailed comparison of motion immediately before and after collision
Use minimum-cut algorithm to generate best segmentation

active segmentation Not always practical!
No good for objects the robot can view but not touch
No good for very big or very small objects
But fine for objects the robot is expected to manipulate
Head segmentation the hard way!

listening to physics Active segmentation is
useful even if robot normally depends on other segmentation cues (color, stereo)
If passive segmentation is incorrect and robot fails to grasp object, active segmentation can use even clumsy collision to get truth
Seems silly not to use this feedback from physics and keep making the same mistake

opportunistic learning
To begin with, Cog has three categories of perceptual abilities:– Judgements it can currently make (e.g. about color, motion, time)
– Judgements it can sometimes make (e.g. boundary of object, identity of object)
– Judgements it cannot currently make (e.g. counting objects)
With opportunistic learning, the robot takes judgements in the sometimes category and works to promote them to the can category by finding reliable correlated features that are more frequently available– Example: analysis of boundaries detected through motion yields purely
visual features that are predictive of edge orientation
– Example: assuming a non-hostile environment (some continuity in time and space) segmented views of objects can be grouped and purely visual features inferred that are characteristic of distinct objects

training a model of edge appearance
Robot initially only perceives oriented edges through active segmentation procedure
Robot collects samples of edge appearance along boundary, and builds a look-up table from appearance to orientation angle
Now can perceive orientation directly
This is often built in, but it doesn’t have to be

conclusion: why do this?
The quest for truly flexible robots
Humanoid form is general-purpose, mechanically flexible
Robots that really live and work amongst us will need to be as general-purpose and adaptive perceptually as they are mechanically
