How a initial model is used? about online_learning HOT 3 CLOSED

Thank you very much for prompt reply. May I ask how to manually add initial correct samples? I suppose by adding some feature vectors in the ".ros/svm_training_data"?

Hi, the online initial classifier is not really necessary to be trained "offline" but rather by a human supervisor. This means the correctness of positive and negative samples is guaranteed by the user (a human). Our experimental version used some hardcoding to ensure the accuracy (i.e. right label) of the initial samples. But the open-source version takes into account the requirement of readability and reusability. So what you could do is A) manually add initial samples or, B) use our package directly while ensuring the accuracy of the positive and negative samples the robot learns at the outset in a controlled environment (e.g. only one person moving around). Best.

Hi, there are many ways, for example you might be willing to prepare some positive and negative samples in advance and save them in one or more pcd files, read/load/learn them in order to initialize an svm model at the beginning of your robot learning in the environment. BTW, touching the source code seems necessary. Best.
