Human Manipulation Segmentation and Characterization Based on Instantaneous Work

    Abstract

    This paper is related to the observation of human operator manipulating objects for teaching a robot to reproduce the action. Assuming the robotic system is equipped with basic manipulation skills, we focus here on the automatic segmentation of the observed manipulation, for extracting the relevant key frames in which the manipulation is best described. The segmentation method proposed is based on the instantaneous work, and presents the advantage of not depending on the force and pose sensing locations. The proposed approach is experimented with two different manipulation skills, sliding and folding, under different settings.
