Abstract
The content discusses the importance of slip perception in mobile robots and introduces an anomaly detection framework based on deep autoencoders. The proposed method integrates data from various sensors to identify anomalies in object slip situations. Experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the framework, especially in detecting anomalies despite environmental noise.
The paper highlights the challenges faced by mobile robots in perceiving object slips due to sensor noise caused by movement. By utilizing a deep autoencoder model, the authors aim to construct latent representations of multisensory data for anomaly detection. The study emphasizes the significance of integrating heterogeneous sensor data for robust slip perception.
Through experiments with a Human Support Robot (HSR), the authors validate their framework's ability to reliably detect anomalies during object slips. Different moving patterns and environmental noises were simulated to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. Results show that multimodal data integration outperforms unimodal approaches, showcasing its robustness against noise.
Overall, the study provides insights into enhancing slip perception capabilities in mobile manipulation robots through advanced anomaly detection techniques using deep learning models and multisensory integration.
