Vision-based object detectors are a crucial basis for robotics applications as they provide valuable information about object localization in the environment. These need to ensure high reliability in different lighting conditions, occlusions, and visual artifacts, all while running in real-time. Col
We introduce DatasetGAN: an automatic procedure to generate massive datasets of high-quality semantically segmented images requiring minimal human effort. Current deep networks are extremely data-hungry, benefiting from training on large-scale datasets, which are time-consuming to annotate. Our meth…
Synthetic data is emerging as a promising solution to the scalability issue of supervised deep learning, especially when real data are difficult to acquire or hard to annotate. Synthetic data generation, however, can itself be prohibitively expensive when domain experts have to manually and painstak…
For robots to become collaborative assistants, they need to be capable of naturally interacting with users in real environments. They also need to be able to learn new skills from non-expert users. In this letter, we present a novel parallel hidden Markov model (PaHMM) architecture for learning from
