Learning To Grasp Unknown Objects Using Weighted Random Forest Algorithm From Selective Image And Point Cloud Feature, Md Shahriar Iqbal

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This method demonstrates an approach to determine the best grasping location on an unknown object using Weighted Random Forest Algorithm. It used RGB-D value of an object as input to find a suitable rectangular grasping region as the output. To accomplish this task, it uses a subspace of most important features from a very high dimensional extensive feature space that contains both image and point cloud features. Usage of most important features in the grasping algorithm has enabled the system to be computationally very fast while preserving maximum information gain. In this approach, the Random Forest operates using optimum parameters …
