Abstract

Trajectory planning of manipulator is a popular research area. To allow the manipulator to have the knowledge of demonstrated skills and the intelligence to infer trajectories for new tasks, a new kind of imitation learning framework is proposed in this paper. Our framework builds up a Functional Primitives Library which is composed by three different types of elements: Event Primitive, Object Primitive and Relation Primitive. Event Primitive consists of action features extracted by Dynamic Movement Primitive and the functions of the actions which describe the state changes of operated objects monitoring by visual sensor. Object Primitive describes the objects involved in tasks. Relation Primitive is used to represent the relationship between objects. Besides, a state-movement reasoning algorithm based on dichotomy is raised to realize the inference of the complete movement sequence for a new task.
