Adaptive Human-Robot Collaborative Painting Combining Preference-Based Optimization and Dynamic Motion Primitives

arXiv:2608.01981v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work presents a human-centered collaborative framework that integrates Preference-Based Optimization (PBO) and Dynamic Movement Primitives (DMPs) to optimize robot-assisted tasks such as painting. The system allows the operator to perform the process while the robot adapts its behavior in real-time, dynamically adjusting the orientation of the piece in order to match the orientation of the operator's hand. The PBO framework leverages the GLIS

arXiv:2608.01981v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work presents a human-centered collaborative framework that integrates Preference-Based Optimization (PBO) and Dynamic Movement Primitives (DMPs) to optimize robot-assisted tasks such as painting. The system allows the operator to perform the process while the robot adapts its behavior in real-time, dynamically adjusting the orientation of the piece in order to match the orientation of the operator's hand. The PBO framework leverages the GLISp algorithm to iteratively refine control parameters such as execution time, robot responsiveness, and rotation amplification through human feedback. Moreover, DMPs have been modified to enhance the reactive behavior of the robot and its adaptability to ergonomic requirements. The method was validated with a heterogeneous group of participants executing \rev{painting tasks}. The results show that our strategy effectively reduces operator effort while optimizing process outcomes.
