Approximate, Adapt, Anonymize (3A): a Framework for Privacy Preserving Training Data Release for Machine Learning

no code implementations4 Jul 2023 Tamas Madl, Weijie Xu, Olivia Choudhury, Matthew Howard

Despite progress in differential privacy and generative modeling for privacy-preserving data release in the literature, only a few approaches optimize for machine learning utility: most approaches only take into account statistical metrics on the data itself and fail to explicitly preserve the loss metrics of machine learning models that are to be subsequently trained on the generated data.

Privacy Preserving Synthetic Data Generation

Training Humans to Train Robots Dynamic Motor Skills

no code implementations17 Apr 2021 Marina Y. Aoyama, Matthew Howard

Learning from demonstration (LfD) is commonly considered to be a natural and intuitive way to allow novice users to teach motor skills to robots.

Open-Ended Question Answering

Exploiting Ergonomic Priors in Human-to-Robot Task Transfer

no code implementations1 Mar 2020 Jeevan Manavalan, Prabhakar Ray, Matthew Howard

The main advantage to using this is generalisation of a task by retargeting a systems redundancy as well as the capability to fully replace an entire system with another of varying link number and lengths while still accurately repeating a task subject to the same constraints.

Improving Task-Parameterised Movement Learning Generalisation with Frame-Weighted Trajectory Generation

1 code implementation4 Mar 2019 Aran Sena, Brendan Michael, Matthew Howard

Learning from Demonstration depends on a robot learner generalising its learned model to unseen conditions, as it is not feasible for a person to provide a demonstration set that accounts for all possible variations in non-trivial tasks.

A Library for Constraint Consistent Learning

no code implementations12 Jul 2018 Yuchen Zhao, Jeevan Manavalan, Prabhakar Ray, Hsiu-Chin Lin, Matthew Howard

This paper introduces the first, open source software library for Constraint Consistent Learning (CCL).

Learning Singularity Avoidance

no code implementations11 Jul 2018 Jeevan Manavalan, Matthew Howard

With the increase in complexity of robotic systems and the rise in non-expert users, it can be assumed that task constraints are not explicitly known.

Learning Null Space Projections in Operational Space Formulation

no code implementations26 Jul 2016 Hsiu-Chin Lin, Matthew Howard

In this paper, we consider learning the null space projection matrix of a kinematically constrained system in the absence of any prior knowledge either on the underlying policy, the geometry, or dimensionality of the constraints.
