Shared Autonomy for Teleoperation

The goal of the Shared Autonomy for Teleoperation project is to help robots quickly learn from teleoperator controls what an operator would like the robot to do. After a robot determines the operator's goal, it can autonomously work toward completing it.  The researchers approached this project by adding active learning components to robot movement planning to help the robot infer operator goals more efficiently from subsequent operator inputs.
