This interaction experience is collected with a simple sampling-based motion planner that does not require demonstrations or an expert policy. Since the affordances are not prespecified (either explicitly by labels or implicitly by predefined manipulation strategies), they are unbiased, i.e., they emerge only from the constraints of the task.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
