POETICON++

This is the repository of the POETICON++ EU project.

Installation

Dependencies

Needed to compile the core build:

PRADA probabilistic planner also needs:

  • libPRADA, mirrored in the 3rdparty directory

Affordance network dependencies:

  • YARP Java bindings (in the YARP build directory, call CMake and enable YARP_COMPILE_BINDINGS, CREATE_JAVA, PREPARE_CLASS_FILES)
  • YARP for MATLAB (add the directory with the Java *.class files to the classpath, and the directory with libjyarp.so to librarypath.txt)
  • pmtk3 (installation: launch MATLAB as superuser, run initPmtk3.m, click on setPath, select the pmtk3 directories then Save to permanently add them to MATLABPATH)

Additional dependencies for specific modules

External projects used in the full POETICON++ demo:

Speech recognition dependencies:

Linux

First install libPRADA, required by the probabilistic planner:

cd poeticon
tar xzvf 3rdparty/libPRADA.tgz && cd libPRADA
patch src/MT/util.h < ../extern/libPRADA/prada_unistd.patch
patch test/relational_plan/main.cpp < ../extern/libPRADA/prada_readgoalfromfile.patch
make
cp test/relational_plan/x.exe ../app/conf/planner.exe

Then install the core POETICON++ build:

git clone https://github.com/robotology/poeticon
cd poeticon && mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && make

Note: the modules belonging to the probabilistic planner part (planningCycle, affordanceCommunication, geometricGrounding, goalCompiler) must have access to the same "contexts/poeticon" directory. One way to accomplish this is to run them on the same machine.

Documentation

Please refer to the documentation inside each module, and to the help commands available via RPC interfaces.
