AbstractMost robots today work in factories where people need to program every step of a task. This project explores how to make robots easier to use by helping them learn from watching people. This project uses artificial intelligence using reinforcement and imitation learning approaches. The goal is to teach robots how to see and handle objects by using video demonstrations of humans performing different actions. This is especially helpful with learning to grasp and move objects that have never been s
