IRI - Institut de Robòtica i Informàtica Industrial, CSIC-UPC
The Institut de Robòtica i Informàtica Industrial was created in November 1995 as a Joint Research Institute of the Spanish Council for Scientific Research (CSIC) and the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC).
The Institute was created with three main objectives: a) to promote a multidisciplinary center where CSIC and UPC researchers from different fields can combine efforts to carry out research on robotics and applied informatics; b) to offer to the community an Institute for fundamental and pre‐industrial technological research, offering also scientific education through doctorate and postgraduate courses; and c) to promote a quality‐based center being competitive enough to join other partners to participate in local, national and European research programs.

Uncalibrated, unified and unsupervised specular-aware photometric stereo
(Springer, 2023)
Conference report
Open AccessIn this paper we present a variational approach to simultaneously recover the 3D reconstruction, reflectance, lighting and specularities of an object, all of them, from a set of RGB images. The approach works in an ... -
Context attention: human motion prediction using context information and deep learning attention models
(Springer, 2022)
Conference lecture
Open AccessThis work proposes a human motion prediction model for handover operations. The model uses a multi-headed attention architecture to process the human skeleton data together with contextual data from the operation. This ... -
Sensitivity analysis and calibration for a two-dimensional state-space model of metal hydride storage tanks based on experimental data
(Elsevier, 2024-06-12)
Article
Open AccessIn this paper, a state-space model of a metal hydride tank is formulated and analyzed in detail. Firstly, a three-dimensional state-space model of the metal hydride tank is simplified by assuming that the tank temperature ... -
Towards transferring tactile-based continuous force control policies from simulation to robot
(2023)
Conference report
Open AccessThe advent of tactile sensors in robotics has sparked many ideas on how robots can leverage direct contact measurements of their environment interactions to improve manipulation tasks. An important line of research in this ... -
Back to MLP: a simple baseline for human motion prediction
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2023)
Conference report
Open AccessThis paper tackles the problem of human motion prediction, consisting in forecasting future body poses from historically observed sequences. State-of-the-art approaches provide good results, however, they rely on deep ... -
Visual semantic relatedness dataset for image captioning
(2023)
Conference report
Open AccessModern image captioning system relies heavily on extracting knowledge from images to capture the concept of a static story. In this paper, we propose a textual visual context dataset for captioning, in which the publicly ... -
NeRFLight: Fast and Light Neural Radiance Fields using a shared feature grid
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2023)
Conference report
Open AccessWhile original Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) have shown impressive results in modeling the appearance of a scene with compact MLP architectures, they are not able to achieve real-time rendering. This has been recently ... -
Els reptes de la robòtica assistencial: memòria llegida per l'acadèmica electa Dra. Carme Torras i Genís, a l'acte de la seva recepció el dia 16 de febrer de 2017
(2017)
Article
Open AccessEls robots ja no estan confinats a les fàbriques, sinó que els anirem trobant cada vegada més en entorns urbans, socials i assistencials. Per arribar a ser companys de feina eficaços i assistents útils, han d’estar dotats ... -
User interactions and negative examples to improve the learning of semantic rules in a cognitive exercise scenario
(2023)
Conference report
Open AccessEnabling a robot to perform new tasks is a complex endeavor, usually beyond the reach of non-technical users. For this reason, research efforts that aim at empowering end-users to teach robots new abilities using intuitive ... -
Photovoltaic power forecasting using sky images and sun motion
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2023)
Conference report
Open AccessSolar energy adoption is moving at a rapid pace. The variability in solar energy production causes grid stability issues and hinders mass adoption. To solve these issues, more accurate photovoltaic power forecasting systems ... -
Gaussian-process-based robot learning from demonstration
(Springer, 2023-02-22)
Article
Open AccessLearning from demonstration allows to encode task constraints from observing the motion executed by a human teacher. We present a Gaussian-process-based learning from demonstration (LfD) approach that allows robots to learn ... -
A novel collision model for inextensible textiles and its experimental validation
(Elsevier, 2024-04)
Article
Open AccessIn this work, we introduce a collision model specifically tailored for the simulation of inextensible textiles. The model considers friction, contacts, and inextensibility constraints all at the same time without any ...
