Eye Gaze for Intelligent Driving

NSH 4305

Abstract: Intelligent vehicles have been proposed as one path to increasing vehicular safety and reduce on-road crashes. Driving intelligence has taken many forms, ranging from simple blind spot occupancy or forward collision warnings to lane keeping and all the way to full driving autonomy in certain situations. Primarily, these methods are outward-facing and operate on [...]

Dense 3D Representation Learning for Geometric Reasoning in Manipulation Tasks

NSH 3001

Abstract: When solving a manipulation task like "put away the groceries" in real environments, robots must understand what *can* happen in these environments, as well as what *should* happen in order to accomplish the task. This knowledge can enable downstream robot policies to directly reason about which actions they should execute, and rule out behaviors [...]
