用变速教学回放扩充真实数据,提升力控机器人模仿学习效果
Variable-Speed Teaching-Playback as Real-World Data Augmentation for Imitation Learning
- 在真实环境中通过变速教学回放生成新数据
- 最高提升55%抓取与擦拭任务成功率
- 适合需要力控的现实机器人学习场景
由于模仿学习依赖难以模拟环境中的真人示范,引入力控后训练数据更加稀缺,即使仅改变速度也会导致数据不足。尽管数据增强领域已有所进展,但现有机器人操作的数据增强方法仍局限于仿真或位置控制下的下采样。本文提出一种适用于力控的真实世界数据增强新方法,通过在不同速度下进行教学-回放,提升环境响应数据的数量和质量。实验基于基于双边控制的模仿学习,采用位置-力控结合的方法,在两个任务(抓取放置、擦拭)上分别使用两次固定速度的人类示范进行评估。结果表明,通过在不同速度下采集环境响应数据,成功率达最大55%提升,同时在持续时间/频率指令下精度也得到改善。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Because imitation learning relies on human demonstrations in hard-to-simulate settings, the inclusion of force control in this method has resulted in a shortage of training data, even with a simple change in speed. Although the field of data augmentation has addressed the lack of data, conventional methods of data augmentation for robot manipulation are limited to simulation-based methods or downsampling for position control. This paper proposes a novel method of data augmentation that is applicable to force control and preserves the advantages of real-world datasets. We applied teaching-playback at variable speeds as real-world data augmentation to increase both the quantity and quality of environmental reactions at variable speeds. An experiment was conducted on bilateral control-based imitation learning using a method of imitation learning equipped with position-force control. We evaluated the effect of real-world data augmentation on two tasks, pick-and-place and wiping, at variable speeds, each from two human demonstrations at fixed speed. The results showed a maximum 55% increase in success rate from a simple change in speed of real-world reactions and improved accuracy along the duration/frequency command by gathering environmental reactions at variable speeds.
