Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of robot grasping technology, and in particular to a robot grasping point detection method, system, medium, equipment and program product. Background Art

[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] Robotic grasping is a key capability of robots in various application scenarios, including debris removal, surgical medical treatment, intelligent manufacturing, human-computer interaction, intelligent logistics, and service robots. With the increasing maturity of large-scale deep learning models, especially the emergence of ChatGPT (Chat Generation Pre-trained Transformer), the development of artificial intelligence has been greatly accelerated, especially in the field of robotics. So far, a large number of deep learning models have been applied to robot intelligent grasping, such as PointNet (Point Cloud Processing Network), PointNet++ (Improved Point Cloud Processing Network), VGN (Voxel Grasping Network), GIGA (Grasping Implicit Geometry Inspiration Network), etc. Researchers are committed to improving the grasping success rate and grasping efficiency.

[0004] However, current research shows that deep learning models lack calibration, which means that the probabilities predicted by the robot intelligent grasping detection model may not accurately reflect the actual grasping success rate. While this is acceptable for non-physical tasks, it directly leads to physical tasks that can only remain at the computer simulation level, such as robotic grasping and surgical robots, because unreliable predictions of intelligent algorithms may affect robotic grasping. In order to ensure the safe deployment of embodied intelligence in the real world, it becomes crucial to obtain a well-calibrated robot intelligent grasping detection model.

[0005] How to obtain a well-calibrated grasping detection model is a new problem with many challenges. Unlike the calibration of classification problems, the output of grasping detection models is generally multiple grasping points on the surface of the object. At the same time, the width, position, posture and planned path of the robot end gripper will affect the confidence of the grasping detection model. Therefore, the calibration theory of a single classification problem is not applicable to robot grasping tasks.

[0036] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0037] It should be noted that the following detailed descriptions are exemplary and are intended to provide further explanation of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs.

[0038] In the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other. The present invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0039] Embodiment 1

[0040] The purpose of this first embodiment is to provide a robot grasping point detection method.

[0041] The robot grasping point detection method provided in this embodiment develops a parallel branch neural network structure, including an autoencoder and a self-adjusting encoder, which can be used for post-training calibration of the autoencoder. In this method, the self-adjusting encoder extracts the adjustment factor from the truncated signed distance function (TSDF) voxel grid fused with the working scene depth image to act on the grasping score feature before activation, and achieves the purpose of final calibration by adjusting the confidence of the grasping quality generated by each voxel in different scenes.

[0042] The robot grasping point detection method provided in this embodiment makes the grasping quality estimation more reliable to meet the actual objective probability without changing the grasping prediction judgment of the autoencoder. In this way, the intelligent algorithm can be deployed to the real task that needs to meet the safety factor specification through the accurate estimation of the grasping success rate. At the same time, the reliable confidence level also means that the robot can select the real best grasping point according to the prediction of the model to improve the actual grasping success rate.

[0043] The robot grasping point detection method provided in this embodiment has been extensively tested on simulation platforms and in the real world. The experimental results show that the robot grasping point detection method provided in this embodiment achieves better calibration performance, higher grasping success rate, and higher impurity removal rate. It effectively improves the reliability of the intelligent grasping algorithm and will accelerate the actual deployment of embodied intelligence in the real world to meet development needs.

[0044] The robot grasping point detection method provided in this embodiment is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the following steps are included:

[0045] Step 1: Build a robot visual grasping system (working scenario).

[0046] The robotic arm is installed on a fixed base, the two-finger gripper is installed at the end of the robotic arm, the depth camera is fixed on the gripper and rigidly connected to it, a workbench area is built in front of the robotic arm, different objects are placed in the workbench area for the robotic arm to grasp, and a recycling box is placed on the side of the robotic arm to wait for the objects in the workbench area to be recycled.

[0047] Step 2: Collect depth data within the working scene.

[0048] After arranging the working scene, the hand-eye calibration method is used to obtain the homogeneous transformation matrix of the camera coordinate system in the robot arm base coordinate system. Then, the code is used to control the robot arm to the upper right side of the working area at an angle of about 60 degrees, and then wait for 1 second to turn on the depth camera to collect the depth data of the working scene (that is, the depth image containing the object to be grasped). After obtaining the depth data, the robot arm is controlled to return to the manufacturer's initial position to wait for grasping.

[0049] Step 3: Synthesize the data required for the neural network model, namely, a cube voxel map represented by a truncated signed distance function (TSDF).

[0050] First, the three-dimensional workspace is represented as N × N × N A voxel grid of size , where N represents the number of voxels in each dimension. Assuming a voxel ( i , j , k ), then the coordinates of this voxel point in the world coordinate system are p w =( x 0+ v × i , y 0+ v × j , z 0+ v × k ),in v represents the actual side length of each voxel, ( x 0, y 0, z 0) represents the origin coordinates of the world coordinate system. Then this voxel point ( i , j , k ) in the camera coordinate system is: .

[0051] In the formula, R wc represents the rotation matrix of the camera, T c represents the camera's translation vector, p wRepresents the coordinates of this voxel point in the world coordinate system. Assume K Represents the intrinsic parameter matrix of the camera, then Kp c =( u , v , d ), d Represents the depth value of this voxel point in the camera coordinate system, ( u , v ) represents the coordinates of this voxel point in the image coordinate system. The actual depth value of the object surface of this voxel point can be directly read from the depth map through the coordinates in the image coordinate system. d’ , then TSDF can be expressed as: .

[0052] The piecewise function represented by clip is: .

[0053] Step 4: Build the structure of the grasping detection neural network model (abbreviated as grasping detection model).

[0054] In this embodiment, the grasping detection model adopts a dual-branch neural network structure, such as Figure 2 As shown, it includes a 3D autoencoder (neural network backbone) and a self-regulating encoder, and is a six-degree-of-freedom grasping detection model based on self-regulating coding theory.

[0055] The neural network backbone of the grasping detection neural network model is a 3D autoencoder structure, including a downsampling layer, an upsampling layer, and an output layer (including three convolution kernels of size 5×5×5). The downsampling layer, upsampling layer, and output layer are connected in sequence; the output layer contains three parallel branches, which output the width between the gripper fingers, the gripper posture, and non-probability output respectively.

[0056] The downsampling layer contains three sequentially connected three-dimensional (3D) convolutional layers with convolution kernel sizes of 5×5×5, 3×3×3, and 3×3×3, respectively. The generated feature map sizes are 16×20×20×20, 32×10×10×10, and 64×5×5×5, respectively. The upsampling layer also contains three sequentially connected convolutional layers with convolution kernel sizes of 3×3×3, 3×3×3, and 5×5×5, respectively. The feature map sizes of each layer output are 64×10×10×10, 32×20×20×20, and 16×40×40×40. Finally, the width between the fingers of the gripper, the gripper posture, and the non-probability output (several grasping points before calibration) are output through three parallel-connected convolution kernels of size 5×5×5.

[0057] The model structure of the self-adjusting encoder is a 3D (three-dimensional) convolutional coding structure with 4 layers connected sequentially. In order to ensure that the input information is not compressed, the convolution structure of the self-adjusting encoder does not change the spatial dimension of the input. The size of the convolution kernel of each layer is set to 5×5×5, 3×3×3, 3×3×3, and 3×3×3, respectively. The sizes of the feature maps generated by the first three layers are 16×40×40×40, 32×40×40×40, and 64×40×40×40, respectively. The size of the adjustment factor generated by the last layer is 1×40×40×40, which is consistent with the non-probability output. Subsequently, the non-probability output and the adjustment factor are subjected to a Hadamard product operation, and the result of the Hadamard product operation is activated to obtain the grasping point score.

[0058] Among them, the activation adopts the Sigmoid function (S-type function).

[0059] Step 5: The training of the entire dual-branch structure neural network includes two stages.

[0060] Phase 1: Since the self-regulatory coding theory is a post-training calibration method, the self-regulatory encoder branch must be discarded and the remaining structure (i.e., the autoencoder) is trained end-to-end using the training set.

[0061] The second stage: After the training weights are obtained in the first stage, they are loaded into the dual-branch structure and the original weights are frozen. The original weights refer to the weights of the remaining layers (i.e., upsampling and downsampling layers) obtained after the output layer in the first stage of training; finally, the validation set is used to perform end-to-end training on the entire grasp detection model.

[0062] Note that the process of updating the self-tuning encoder parameters using the validation set does not need to consider the loss of the gripper finger width and gripper pose.

[0063] Among them, the loss function design of the grasp detection model: Since the training is a two-stage process, the loss function consists of two parts, namely the first-stage loss and the second-stage loss.

[0064] The loss function for each grasp point is: .

[0065] in, and Represent the predicted grasping point and the actual grasping point respectively, and They are the predicted grasping point score and the actual grasping point score, and They are the predicted grasping pose quaternion and the actual grasping pose quaternion, and They are the predicted crawl width and the actual crawl width; represents the binary cross entropy loss, is the mean square error loss; the rotation loss is defined as follows: .

[0066] in, , yes The rotation quaternion obtained by rotating the gripper 180 degrees around its central axis.

[0067] Therefore, the loss function of the first stage is defined as: .

[0068] in, Indicates the number of grab points in a scene.

[0069] The second stage loss function is defined as: .

[0070] Step 6: Dataset construction.

[0071] In order to complete the grasping detection neural network model training in the above steps, a data set required for training is provided in this embodiment. This data set is generated by simulating the real-world environment using the Pybullet robot simulation platform, and the robotic arm two-finger gripper model is used to continuously make grasping attempts in the simulation environment to obtain the labels of the samples, where a successful grasp is a positive grasping point, and a failed grasp is marked as a negative grasping point. The TSDF voxel map of each scene and the corresponding grasping label constitute a sample in the data set, of which 80% of the data set is randomly selected as a training set and the remaining 20% ​​is used as a validation set. The scenes set in the simulation environment are shown in Figure 3 (a) and Figure 3 (b), which are packing and stacking scenes, respectively. 16,640 samples were collected for the packing scene and 83,305 samples were collected for the stacking scene.

[0072] Step 7: Capture and detect the forward transfer process of the neural network model.

[0073] The TSDF voxel map synthesized from the working scene is used by the autoencoder of the grasping detection neural network model to generate the corresponding grasping configuration, namely the width between the fingers of the gripper, the gripper posture and the non-probability output; at the same time, the local features are associated with the self-adjusting encoder to generate the required adjustment factors; the adjustment factors act on the non-probability output to adjust its value (grasping point score feature) so that a more reliable grasping score can be obtained after the non-probability output is activated. This grasping score is the possibility of actual successful grasping.

[0074] Step 8. Select the grab point and execute the grab.

[0075] After obtaining the grasping score, the grasping point with the highest grasping score is selected to perform the grasping. The robot arm performs the grasping action at the highest scoring grasping point combined with the width between the gripper fingers and the gripper posture, and places the grasped object in the recycling bin.

[0076] The robot grasping point detection method provided in this embodiment introduces a new grasping point score reliability problem of the grasping detection neural network model in robot grasping, aiming to narrow the gap between the predicted grasping point score and the actual grasping success rate, and defines it as the calibration of the grasping detection model, which can lay the foundation for real-world robot grasping based on deep learning.

[0077] The robot grasping point detection method provided in this embodiment provides a new data set including packaging and stacking scenes, shortens the training time by more than 10 times, greatly improves the training efficiency, and effectively avoids information overlap between samples.

[0078] The robot grasping point detection method provided in this embodiment proposes a new self-regulating coding theory based on a dual-branch network structure, which can generate effective factor callbacks for the non-probabilistic output of the autoencoder to improve the safety and reliability of grasping.

[0079] The robot grasping point detection method provided in this embodiment designs and develops a novel network structure, called a self-adjusting encoder, which can extract three-dimensional local features of the working scene and perform local correlation adjustment on non-probabilistic outputs.

[0080] The robot grasping point detection method provided in this embodiment has been verified in a large number of simulations and real environments. The results show that the robot grasping point detection method provided in this embodiment achieves better calibration performance while improving the grasping success rate and clearance rate.
