One-Shot Multimodal Learning from Demonstration with Force-Constrained Elastic Maps
Brendan Hertel, Jonathan Spanos, Navya Garg, Reza Azadeh
Robotic manipulation tasks often require simultaneous reasoning over motion and contact forces, yet most Learning from Demonstration (LfD) methods model only spatial trajectories and neglect force interactions with the environment. This limitation reduces robustness and can lead…
