Abstract: A framework for offline learning from a set of diverse and suboptimal demonstrations operates by selectively imitating local sequences from the dataset. At least one embodiment recovers performant policies from large manipulation datasets by decomposing the problem into a goal-conditioned imitation and a high-level goal selection mechanism.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to identify a goal of a demonstration. In at least one embodiment, video data of a demonstration is analyzed to identify a goal. Object trajectories identified in the video data are analyzed with respect to a task predicate satisfied by a respective object trajectory, and with respect to motion predicate. Analysis of the trajectory with respect to the motion predicate is used to assess intentionality of a trajectory with respect to the goal.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to place one or more objects in a location and orientation. In at least one embodiment, one or more circuits are to use one or more neural networks to cause one or more autonomous devices to place one or more objects in a location and orientation based, at least in part, on one or more images of the location and orientation.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to train a machine learning model. In at least one embodiment, a first machine learning model is trained to infer a concept based on first information, training data is labeled using the first machine learning model, and a second machine learning model is trained to infer the concept using the labeled training data.

Abstract: A differentiable simulator for simulating the cutting of soft materials by a cutting instrument is provided. In accordance with one aspect of the disclosure, a method for simulating a cutting operation includes: receiving a mesh for an object, modifying the mesh to add virtual nodes associated with a predefined cutting plane, optimizing a set of parameters associated with a simulator based on ground-truth data, and running a simulation via the simulator to generate outputs that include trajectories associated with a cutting instrument. Optimizing the set of parameters can include performing inference based on a set of ground-truth trajectories captured using sensors to measure real-world cutting operations. The inference techniques can employ stochastic gradient descent, stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics, or a Bayesian approach. In an embodiment, the simulator can be utilized to generate control signals for a robot based on the simulated trajectories.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and techniques determine a set of grasp poses that would allow a robot to successfully grasp an object that is proximate to at least one additional object. In at least one embodiment, the set of grasp poses is modified based on a determination that at least one of the grasp poses in the set of grasp poses would interfere with at least one additional object that is proximate to the object.

Abstract: A human pilot controls a robotic arm and gripper by simulating a set of desired motions with the human hand. In at least one embodiment, one or more images of the pilot's hand are captured and analyzed to determine a set of hand poses. In at least one embodiment, the set of hand poses is translated to a corresponding set of robotic-gripper poses. In at least one embodiment, a set of motions is determined that perform the set of robotic-gripper poses, and the robot is directed to perform the set of motions.

Abstract: A computer system generates a tactile force model for a tactile force sensor by performing a number of calibration tasks. In various embodiments, the calibration tasks include pressing the tactile force sensor while the tactile force sensor is attached to a pressure gauge, interacting with a ball, and pushing an object along a planar surface. Data collected from these calibration tasks is used to train a neural network. The resulting tactile force model allows the computer system to convert signals received from the tactile force sensor into a force magnitude and direction with greater accuracy than conventional methods. In an embodiment, force on the tactile force sensor is inferred by interacting with an object, determining the motion of the object, and estimating the forces on the object based on a physical model of the object.
