[IROS 2020] Graph-based hierarchical knowledge representation for robot task transfer from virtual to physical world

We study the hierarchical knowledge transfer problem using a cloth-folding task, wherein the agent is first given a set of human demonstrations in the virtual world using an Oculus Headset, and later transferred and validated on a physical Baxter robot.
