Humans have a way of understanding others'goals,desires and beliefs,a crucial skill that allows us to
anticipate people's actions.Taking bread out of the toaster?You'll need a plate.Sweeping up leaves?You'll grab
the green trash can.This skill,often referred to as、theory of mind、,comes easily to us as humans,but for robots it
still has a high mountain to conquer
In a recent study,computer science researchers made the robot、watch、the human complete the task using a
camera placed directly above the assembly()area,looking down.To detect the parts operated by the human,
the system used AprilTags,similar to QR codes,attached to the parts.Then,the system used machine learning to
lear a person's preference based on their orders of actions in the task 、Based on how a person performs the small
assembly,the robot predicts what that person will do in the larger assembly.、said Nemlekar.、For example,if the
robot sees that a person likes to start the small assembly with the easiest part,it will predict that they will start with
the easiest part in the large assembly as well.、
In the researchers'user study,their system was able to predict the actions that humans will take with around
82%accuracy.、We hope that our research can make it easier for people to show robots what they prefer,、said
Nemlekar.、By helping each person in their preferred way.robots can reduce their work,save time and even build
trust with them.、This technology could also be useful in industrial settings where workers are tasked with
assembling products in large mumbers,saving time and reducing the risk of injury or accidents.Additionally,it
could help persons with disabilities to more easily assemble products and maintain independence.
、Our goal is not to replace humans on the factory floor.I expect similar findings in other applications as well,
said Nikolaidis.、Arobot that can quickly learn our preferences can help us prepare a meal,rearrange furniture or
do house repairs,having a significant impact on our daily lives.、
