Abstract

Service robots need to be able to recognize and identify objects located within complex backgrounds. Since no single method may work in every situation, several methods need to be combined. However, there are several cases when autonomous recognition methods fail. We propose several types of interactive recognition methods in those cases. Each one takes place at the failures of autonomous methods in different situations. We proposed four types of interactive methods such that robot may know the current situation and initiate the appropriate interaction with the user. Moreover we propose the grammar and sentence patterns for the instructions used by the user. We also propose an interactive learning process which can be used to learn or improve an object model through failures.
