PrioriTouch: Adapting to User Contact Preferences for Whole-Arm Physical Human-Robot Interaction

  • 用学习排序方法动态分配多点接触的控制优先级
  • 在仿真和真实实验中均实现个性化接触适应与任务成功
  • 适合护理等需频繁多点接触的场景,提升人机协作体验

物理人机交互(pHRI)要求机器人适应个体接触偏好,如接触位置和受力大小。单点接触的偏好识别已具挑战,而全身交互涉及多个同时接触点时,不同身体部位可能产生冲突的力需求,问题更为复杂。在护理任务中,接触频繁且多样,此类冲突不可避免。多个接触点存在多重偏好时,无法找到单一解满足所有目标,必须进行权衡取舍,因此优先级设定至关重要。本文提出PrioriTouch框架,用于对多接触点的控制目标进行排序与执行。该框架可从通用控制器集合中优先排序,不仅适用于床浴、穿衣等护理场景,也适用于更广泛的多接触环境。方法结合新颖的学习排序策略与分层操作空间控制,利用仿真回放实现高效安全探索。通过用户研究获取个性化舒适阈值,并融入系统。在大量仿真与真实实验中验证,PrioriTouch能有效适应用户接触偏好,维持任务性能,同时提升安全性和舒适性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) requires robots to adapt to individual contact preferences, such as where and how much force is applied. Identifying preferences is difficult for a single contact; with whole-arm interaction involving multiple simultaneous contacts between the robot and human, the challenge is greater because different body parts can impose incompatible force requirements. In caregiving tasks, where contact is frequent and varied, such conflicts are unavoidable. With multiple preferences across multiple contacts, no single solution can satisfy all objectives--trade-offs are inherent, making prioritization essential. We present PrioriTouch, a framework for ranking and executing control objectives across multiple contacts. PrioriTouch can prioritize from a general collection of controllers, making it applicable not only to caregiving scenarios such as bed bathing and dressing but also to broader multi-contact settings. Our method combines a novel learning-to-rank approach with hierarchical operational space control, leveraging simulation-in-the-loop rollouts for data-efficient and safe exploration. We conduct a user study on physical assistance preferences, derive personalized comfort thresholds, and incorporate them into PrioriTouch. We evaluate PrioriTouch through extensive simulation and real-world experiments, demonstrating its ability to adapt to user contact preferences, maintain task performance, and enhance safety and comfort.
