Assistive robot arms try to help their users perform everyday tasks. One way robots can provide this assistance is shared autonomy . Within shared autonomy, both the human and robot maintain control over the robot’s motion: as the robot becomes confident it understands what the human wants, it intervenes to automate the task. But how does the robot...

Robots can learn from humans by asking questions. In these questions the robot demonstrates a few different behaviors and asks the human for their favorite. But how should robots choose which questions to ask? Today’s robots optimize for informative questions that actively probe the human’s preferences as efficiently as possible. But while informat...
When humans control robot arms these robots often need to infer the human's desired task. Prior research on assistive teleoperation and shared autonomy explores how robots can determine the desired task based on the human's joystick inputs. In order to perform this inference the robot relies on an internal mapping between joystick inputs and discre...
Wheelchair-mounted robotic arms (and other assistive robots) should help their users perform everyday tasks. One way robots can provide this assistance is shared autonomy. Within shared autonomy, both the human and robot maintain control over the robot's motion: as the robot becomes confident it understands what the human wants, it increasingly int...

Assistive robots have the potential to help people perform everyday tasks. However, these robots first need to learn what it is their user wants them to do. Teaching assistive robots is hard for inexperienced users, elderly users, and users living with physical disabilities, since often these individuals are unable to teleoperate the robot along th...
