Goals and Actions: Learning by Imitation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Imitation is a powerful form of learning used in many animal societies. Imitation encourages the social interaction and the cultural transfer. Hence, Imitation represents many advantages, which have inspired the roboticists to reach imitation in order to approach social intelligent social intelligent robotics systems. The paper presents a mechanism of imitation, which permits a robot to acquire new behaviours through the extraction of the goals from the perceived actions. Experimental results with a simulator are also presented to demonstrate such a mechanism.

Goal-Based Imitation as Probabilistic Inference over Graphical Models
Humans are extremely adept at learning new skills by imitating the actions of others. A progression of imitative abilities has been observed in children, ranging from imitation of simple body movements to goalbased imitation based on inferring intent. In this paper, we show that the problem of goal-based imitation can be formulated as one of inferring goals and selecting actions using a learned...
متن کاملObservation and Imitation: Goal Sequence Learning in Neurally Controlled Construction Animats: VI-MAXSON
We report on an under-explored animat learning problem, that of learning sequences of goals, and present an algorithm for solving it using observation and imitation. The presentation introduces the problem as well as a neural agent control architecture we use as a framework in which to use the algorithm. We demonstrate that, by using the algorithm, a learning agent can learn to satisfy a sequen...
متن کاملA Bayesian Developmental Approach to Robotic Goal-Based Imitation Learning
A fundamental challenge in robotics today is building robots that can learn new skills by observing humans and imitating human actions. We propose a new Bayesian approach to robotic learning by imitation inspired by the developmental hypothesis that children use self-experience to bootstrap the process of intention recognition and goal-based imitation. Our approach allows an autonomous agent to...
متن کاملA Novel Parsimonious Cause-Effect Reasoning Algorithm for Robot Imitation and Plan Recognition
Manually programming robots is difficult, impeding more widespread use of robotic systems. In response, efforts are being made to develop robots that use imitation learning. With such systems a robot learns by watching humans perform tasks. However, most imitation learning systems replicate a demonstrator’s actions rather than obtaining a deeper understanding of why those actions occurred. Here...
متن کاملLearning object affordances by imitation Research Progress Report 3
The report explores the role of imitation in learning object affordances. Since I intend to experiment with a robotic arm enabling only pushing objects, properties of objects will be the main factor affecting the overall complexity of this “toy world”. Learning in the toy world is a process of discovering objects’ affordances, as well as the kinds of actions and goals related to them. I intend ...
