In this paper, we tackle the problem of human-robot coordination in sequences of manipulation tasks. Our approach integrates hierarchical human motion prediction with Task and Motion Planning (TAMP). We first devise a hierarchical motion prediction approach by combining Inverse Reinforcement Learning and short-term motion prediction using a Recurrent Neural Network. In a second step, we propose a dynamic version of the TAMP algorithm Logic-Geometric Programming (LGP). Our version of Dynamic LGP, replans periodically to handle the mismatch between the human motion prediction and the actual human behavior. We assess the efficacy of the approach by training the prediction algorithms and testing the framework on the publicly available MoGaze dataset.

Human motion prediction is non-trivial in modern industrial settings. Accurate prediction of human motion can not only improve efficiency in human robot collaboration, but also enhance human safety in close proximity to robots. Among existing predict
ion models, the parameterization and identification methods of those models vary. It remains unclear what is the necessary parameterization of a prediction model, whether online adaptation of the model is necessary, and whether prediction can help improve safety and efficiency during human robot collaboration. These problems result from the difficulty to quantitatively evaluate various prediction models in a closed-loop fashion in real human-robot interaction settings. This paper develops a method to evaluate the closed-loop performance of different prediction models. In particular, we compare models with different parameterizations and models with or without online parameter adaptation. Extensive experiments were conducted on a human robot collaboration platform. The experimental results demonstrated that human motion prediction significantly enhanced the collaboration efficiency and human safety. Adaptable prediction models that were parameterized by neural networks achieved the best performance.
We present situated live programming for human-robot collaboration, an approach that enables users with limited programming experience to program collaborative applications for human-robot interaction. Allowing end users, such as shop floor workers,
to program collaborative robots themselves would make it easy to retask robots from one process to another, facilitating their adoption by small and medium enterprises. Our approach builds on the paradigm of trigger-action programming (TAP) by allowing end users to create rich interactions through simple trigger-action pairings. It enables end users to iteratively create, edit, and refine a reactive robot program while executing partial programs. This live programming approach enables the user to utilize the task space and objects by incrementally specifying situated trigger-action pairs, substantially lowering the barrier to entry for programming or reprogramming robots for collaboration. We instantiate situated live programming in an authoring system where users can create trigger-action programs by annotating an augmented video feed from the robots perspective and assign robot actions to trigger conditions. We evaluated this system in a study where participants (n = 10) developed robot programs for solving collaborative light-manufacturing tasks. Results showed that users with little programming experience were able to program HRC tasks in an interactive fashion and our situated live programming approach further supported individualized strategies and workflows. We conclude by discussing opportunities and limitations of the proposed approach, our system implementation, and our study and discuss a roadmap for expanding this approach to a broader range of tasks and applications.
In this paper we propose FlexHRC+, a hierarchical human-robot cooperation architecture designed to provide collaborative robots with an extended degree of autonomy when supporting human operators in high-variability shop-floor tasks. The architecture
encompasses three levels, namely for perception, representation, and action. Building up on previous work, here we focus on (i) an in-the-loop decision making process for the operations of collaborative robots coping with the variability of actions carried out by human operators, and (ii) the representation level, integrating a hierarchical AND/OR graph whose online behaviour is formally specified using First Order Logic. The architecture is accompanied by experiments including collaborative furniture assembly and object positioning tasks.
This paper presents a human-robot trust integrated task allocation and motion planning framework for multi-robot systems (MRS) in performing a set of tasks concurrently. A set of task specifications in parallel are conjuncted with MRS to synthesize a
task allocation automaton. Each transition of the task allocation automaton is associated with the total trust value of human in corresponding robots. Here, the human-robot trust model is constructed with a dynamic Bayesian network (DBN) by considering individual robot performance, safety coefficient, human cognitive workload and overall evaluation of task allocation. Hence, a task allocation path with maximum encoded human-robot trust can be searched based on the current trust value of each robot in the task allocation automaton. Symbolic motion planning (SMP) is implemented for each robot after they obtain the sequence of actions. The task allocation path can be intermittently updated with this DBN based trust model. The overall strategy is demonstrated by a simulation with 5 robots and 3 parallel subtask automata.
Motion retargeting from human demonstration to robot is an effective way to reduce the professional requirements and workload of robot programming, but faces the challenges resulting from the differences between human and robot. Traditional optimizat
ion-based methods is time-consuming and rely heavily on good initialization, while recent studies using feedforward neural networks suffer from poor generalization to unseen motions. Moreover, they neglect the topological information in human skeletons and robot structures. In this paper, we propose a novel neural latent optimization approach to address these problems. Latent optimization utilizes a decoder to establish a mapping between the latent space and the robot motion space. Afterward, the retargeting results that satisfy robot constraints can be obtained by searching for the optimal latent vector. Alongside with latent optimization, neural initialization exploits an encoder to provide a better initialization for faster and better convergence of optimization. Both the human skeleton and the robot structure are modeled as graphs to make better use of topological information. We perform experiments on retargeting Chinese sign language, which involves two arms and two hands, with additional requirements on the relative relationships among joints. Experiments include retargeting various human demonstrations to YuMi, NAO and Pepper in the simulation environment and to YuMi in the real-world environment. Both efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method are verified.
