How to add new knowledge to already trained deep learning models applied to semantic localization
(06/19/2019)The capacity of a robot to automatically adapt to new environments is crucial, especially in social robotics. Often, when these robots are deployed in home or office environments, they tend to fail because they lack the ... -
Robot Semantic Localization Through CNN Descriptors
(11/12/2017)Semantic localization for mobile robots involves an accurate determination of the kind of place where a robot is located. Therefore, the representation of the knowledge of this place is crucial for the robot. In this paper ... -
Geoffrey: An Automated Schedule System on a Social Robot for the Intellectually Challenged
(12/02/2018)The accelerated growth of the percentage of elder people and persons with brain injury-related conditions and who are intellectually challenged are some of the main concerns of the developed countries. These persons often ... -
Automatic semantic maps generation from lexical annotations
(03/15/2018)The generation of semantic environment representations is still an open problem in robotics. Most of the current proposals are based on metric representations, and incorporate semantic information in a supervised fashion. ... -
