Description: IROS 2019 Workshop on Autonomous Manipulation.
workshop (5291) manipulation (213) iros 2019 (2)
The workshop will be held on 4st of November 2019 in The Venetian Macao, Macau, China in the context of the IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), one of the largest and highest impact robotics research conferences worldwide.
Manipulating objects autonomously and in unstructured environments is one of the basic skills for robots to support people during everyday life outside industrial cages. The study of autonomous manipulation in robotics aims at transferring human-like perceptive skills to robots so that, combined with state of the art control techniques, they could be able to achieve similar performance in manipulating objects.
The great complexity of this task makes autonomous manipulation one of the open problems in robotics that has been drawing a big interest in the community in the recent years. Conventional approaches attempt to reconstruct the scene using 3D vision and compute agrasping pose that attain force closure constraints, or by querying a database of precomputed or learned poses. More recently, grasping has been addressed using end-to-end learning methods showing great performance. However, these methods require rob
