Abstract

With the goal of having robots learn new skills after deployment, we propose an active learning framework for modelling user preferences about task execution. The proposed approach interactively gathers information by asking questions expressed in natural language. We study the validity and the learning performance of the proposed approach and two of its variants compared to a passive learning strategy. We further investigate the human-robot-interaction nature of the framework conducting a usability study with 18 subjects. The results show that active strategies are applicable for learning preferences in temporal tasks from non-expert users. Furthermore, the results provide insights in the interaction design of active learning robots.
