Query: Beyond the Self: Using Grounded Affordances to Interpret and Describe
  Others' Actions   We propose a developmental approach that allows a robot to interpret and
describe the actions of human agents by reusing previous experience. The robot
first learns the association between words and object affordances by
manipulating the objects in its environment. It then uses this information to
learn a mapping between its own actions and those performed by a human in a
shared environment. It finally fuses the information from these two models to
interpret and describe human actions in light of its own experience. In our
experiments, we show that the model can be used flexibly to do inference on
different aspects of the scene. We can predict the effects of an action on the
basis of object properties. We can revise the belief that a certain action
occurred, given the observed effects of the human action. In an early action
recognition fashion, we can anticipate the effects when the action has only
been partially observed. By estimating the probability of words given the
evidence and feeding them into a pre-defined grammar, we can generate relevant
descriptions of the scene. We believe that this is a step towards providing
robots with the fundamental skills to engage in social collaboration with
humans.
