Improving Vision-Based Robotic Grasping for Enhanced Comprehensibility
The objective of vision-based robotic grasping is to determine the parameters of a gripper, including its position, orientation, and opening width, in order to maximize the probability of successfully grasping an object. However, we identified three issues with the current approaches: they neglect …

Stable and Semantic Robotic Grasping Using Tactile Feedback
This thesis covers two topics of robotic grasping: stable grasping and semantic grasping. The first part of the thesis is dedicated to the stable grasping problem, where we focus on a grasping pipeline that robustly executes a planned-to-be stable grasp under uncertainty. To this end, we first …

Screw image space and its application to robotic grasping
… and its application to kinematic restraint and robotic grasping. In the study of restraint and robotic grasping, problems arise in relation to how to map the conditions and requirements of restraint in a special representational space, and how to map an object in the same space, so that all …

Adaptive robust interaction control for low-cost robotic grasping
Robotic grasping is a challenging area in the field of robotics. When a gripper starts interacting with an object to perform a grasp, the mechanical properties of the object (stiffness and damping) will play an important role. A gripper which is stable in isolated conditions, can become unstable …

Robotic Grasping of Fully-Occluded Objects using RF Perception
… implementation, and evaluation of RF-Grasp, a robotic system that can grasp fully-occluded objects in unknown and unstructured environments. Unlike prior systems that are constrained by the line-of-sight perception of vision and infrared sensors, RF-Grasp employs RF (Radio Frequency) perception …

Learning of Multi-Dimensional, Multi-Modal Features for Robotic Grasping
… for coping with uncertain environments, the robotics community is turning to the development of agents that acquire this knowledge progressively and that adapt to unexpected events. This thesis studies the problem of vision-based robotic grasping in uncertain environments. We aim to create an …

Representation Learning for Grounding Vision and Language in Hierarchical Robot Planning
… supporting motion planning. We start with simple robotic grasping and then extend to more general robotic manipulation. Input representations for motion planning algorithms are specified in the SE(3) frame. The research literature on grasp representation learning typically examines how to ground …
