Learning to Act from Observation and Practice
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a method for humanoid robots to quickly learn new dynamic tasks from observing others and from practice. Ways in which the robot can adapt to initial and also changing conditions are described. Agents are given domain knowledge in the form of task primitives. A key element of our approach is to break learning problems up into as many simple learning problems as possible. We present a case study of a humanoid robot learning to play air hockey.

متن کاملObservational learning without a model is influenced by the observer's possibility to act: evidence from the Simon task.
We assessed whether observational learning in perceptual-motor tasks is affected by the visibility of an action producing perceived environmental effects and by the observer's possibility to act during observation. To this end, we conducted three experiments in which participants were required to observe a spatial compatibility task in which only the effects of computer-generated responses were...
