Abstract: In this paper, a motion segmentation algorithm design is presented with the goal of segmenting a learned trajectory from demonstration such that each segment is locally maximally different from its neighbors. This segmentation is then exploited to appropriately scale (dilate/squeeze and/or rotate) a nominal trajectory learned from a few demonstrations on a fixed experimental setup such that it is applicable to different experimental settings without expanding the dataset and/or retraining the robot. The algorithm is computationally efficient in the sense that it allows facile transition between different environments. Experimental results using the Baxter robotic platform showcase the ability of the algorithm to accurately transfer a feeding task.
