  2. VirtualHome : learning to infer programs from synthetic videos of activities in the home

    … complex activities that occur in a typical household. Programs - sequences of atomic actions and interactions - are used as a high-level, unambiguous representation of complex activities executable by an agent. However, no dataset of household activity programs currently exists. This project …

  3. Machine social intelligence in Virtualhome

    … Watch-And-Help (WAH) challenge and a multi-agent environment for testing social intelligence in multiple agents. In the challenge, an AI agent needs to help a human-like agent perform a complex household task efficiently. To succeed, the AI agent needs to i) understand the underlying goal of the …

  4. Generalizable Robot Manipulation through Task and Motion Planning and Interactive Perception

    For a robot operating in a daily household environment, generality is of great importance. It should be able to generalize to different tasks that involve different objects in varying backgrounds and configurations. In this thesis, we will move towards this goal from two perspectives. We will first …

    … artificial agent to execute tasks in a simulated household environment. Our VirtualHome simulator allows us to create a large activity video dataset with rich ground-truth, enabling training and testing of video understanding models. We further showcase examples of our agent performing tasks in …

  8. Cognitive Human Activity and Plan Recognition for Human-Robot Collaboration

    … life (ADL). The ADL scenario takes place in a household environment where a human and robot collaborate to complete daily tasks. We use the ADL scenario to demonstrate that COMPASS resolves the two limitations of previous HAPR studies. First, by using a model-based approach, COMPASS requires …
