Zwischenbericht

Hybrid-Driven State Estimation for a Humanoid Robot

from: Lasse Hohmeyer  (Universität Bremen)
State estimation refers to all algorithms calculating the internal state of a robot. Since the true state is always unknown, it has to be estimated based on a series of noisy and inaccurate measurements. This is a crucial task in mobile robotics and a more accurate state estimation almost always lea…

Enhancing Human-Robot Dialogue with Visual Voice Activity Detection

from: Arunima Gopikrishnan  (Universität Bremen)
This thesis critically examines the integration of Visual Voice Activity Detection (VVAD) technology into human-robot dialogue systems, focusing on its potential to enhance communication in noisy environments. While traditional speech recognition systems excel in quiet settings, their performance de…

Unified model for Grasp stability estimation

from: Prithvi Sanghamreddy  (Universität Bremen)
Grasp stability is one of the main concerns in the field of robotics, as it directly impacts the effectiveness and safety of robotic manipulation tasks. Grasping an object and evaluating the grasp is an important task when we use robotic hands. Establishing robotic hands that can securely hold and m…

Kolloquium

Learning State Transition Functions of a Hydraulic Excavator using Data Driven Deep Learning

from: Jayanth Somashekaraiah  (Universität Bremen)
In this thesis, a neural network model is trained to learn the state transition function of a hydraulic excavator arm or a crane using data driven approach. The excavator arm or crane exhibits highly non linear behaviour due to hydraulic coupling between its actuators, non linearities in valves, par…

Kolloquium

Adversary-driven Exploration in Coordinative Multi-Agent Deep Reinforcement Learning

from: Tim Schnauder  (Universität Bremen)
Multi-agent deep reinforcement learning (MADRL) is a powerful approach that enables agents to coordinate and collaborate to solve complex collaborative tasks. Applications of MADRL range from robotics to traffic control and resource allocation. However, the learning process can be slow, especially w…

Kolloquium

Enhancement and Evaluation of an AUV's Docking Station Detection with Deep-Learning Based Object-Detection

from: Faraz Ahmad  (Constructor University)
Autonomous docking for underwater vehicles, especially locating the docking station, presents significant challenges for deploying sub-sea resident AUVs in exploration and monitoring tasks. To extend a fiducial marker-based docking station detection,  use of the state-of-the-art object detectio…

Exposé

Meta-Reinforcement Learning for Enhanced Generalization in Robotics

from: Lennart Heinbokel  (Universität Bremen)
This thesis aims to investigate the use of meta-reinforcement learning (meta-RL) to enhance sample efficiency in robotic systems, enabling agents to adapt to unseen tasks with fewer interactions. By employing contextual Markov Decision Processes (cMDPs) to formalize task variability, the study offer…

Kolloquium

Performance Evaluation of Quadratic Programming Solvers for Legged Robots on different Computer Architectures

from: Jakob Middelberg  (Universität Bremen)
In the past decade, the development of dynamic legged robots has gained significant traction and has produced remarkable results. Modern bipeds and quadrupeds are able to traverse difficult terrain while using various gaits and movements like walking, trotting, or jumping. Controlling those robotic …
