Learning operators for manipulation planning [PDF]

open access: yes2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2012
We describe a method for learning planning operators for manipulation tasks from hand-written programs to provide a high-level command interface to a robot manipulator that allows tasks to be specified simply as goals. This is made challenging by the fact that a manipulator is a hybrid system—any model of it consists of discrete variables such as ...
