Abstract

In the canonical Robot Learning from Demonstration scenario a robot observes performances of a task and then develops an autonomous controller. Current work acknowledges that humans may be suboptimal demonstrators and refines the controller for improved performance. However, there is still an assumption that the demonstrations are successful examples of the task. We here consider the possibility that the human has failed, and propose a model to minimize the possibility of the robot making the same mistakes.
