Planning for Learning Object Properties

no code implementations15 Jan 2023 Leonardo Lamanna, Luciano Serafini, Mohamadreza Faridghasemnia, Alessandro Saffiotti, Alessandro Saetti, Alfonso Gerevini, Paolo Traverso

Autonomous agents embedded in a physical environment need the ability to recognize objects and their properties from sensory data.

Two ways to make your robot proactive: reasoning about human intentions, or reasoning about possible futures

no code implementations11 May 2022 Sera Buyukgoz, Jasmin Grosinger, Mohamed Chetouani, Alessandro Saffiotti

One way is to recognize humans' intentions and to act to fulfill them, like opening the door that you are about to cross.

Composing Complex and Hybrid AI Solutions

no code implementations25 Feb 2022 Peter Schüller, João Paolo Costeira, James Crowley, Jasmin Grosinger, Félix Ingrand, Uwe Köckemann, Alessandro Saffiotti, Martin Welss

Progress in several areas of computer science has been enabled by comfortable and efficient means of experimentation, clear interfaces, and interchangable components, for example using OpenCV for computer vision or ROS for robotics.

Towards Abstract Relational Learning in Human Robot Interaction

no code implementations20 Nov 2020 Mohamadreza Faridghasemnia, Daniele Nardi, Alessandro Saffiotti

Entities are described by their attributes, and entities that share attributes are often semantically related.

Attribute Relational Reasoning

Robby is Not a Robber (anymore): On the Use of Institutions for Learning Normative Behavior

no code implementations1 Aug 2019 Stevan Tomic, Federico Pecora, Alessandro Saffiotti

Future robots should follow human social norms in order to be useful and accepted in human society.

Learning from Implicit Information in Natural Language Instructions for Robotic Manipulations

no code implementations WS 2019 Ozan Arkan Can, Pedro Zuidberg Dos Martires, Andreas Persson, Julian Gaal, Amy Loutfi, Luc De Raedt, Deniz Yuret, Alessandro Saffiotti

Therefore, we further propose Bayesian learning to resolve such inconsistencies between the natural language grounding and a robot's world representation by exploiting spatio-relational information that is implicitly present in instructions given by a human.

Norms, Institutions, and Robots

no code implementations30 Jul 2018 Stevan Tomic, Federico Pecora, Alessandro Saffiotti

We use the notion of institution as a way to formally define and encapsulate norms, and we provide a formal framework for institutions.

A framework for Culture-aware Robots based on Fuzzy Logic

no code implementations22 Mar 2018 Barbara Bruno, Fulvio Mastrogiovanni, Federico Pecora, Antonio Sgorbissa, Alessandro Saffiotti

Cultural adaptation, i. e., the matching of a robot's behaviours to the cultural norms and preferences of its user, is a well known key requirement for the success of any assistive application.

Scene learning, recognition and similarity detection in a fuzzy ontology via human examples

1 code implementation27 Sep 2017 Luca Buoncompagni, Fulvio Mastrogiovanni, Alessandro Saffiotti

This paper introduces a Fuzzy Logic framework for scene learning, recognition and similarity detection, where scenes are taught via human examples.

Using Dempster-Shafer Theory in Knowledge Representation

no code implementations27 Mar 2013 Alessandro Saffiotti

In this paper, we suggest marrying Dempster-Shafer (DS) theory with Knowledge Representation (KR).
