contents Care-giving and assistive robotics, driven by advancements in AI, offer promising solutions to meet the growing demand for care, particularly in the context of increasing numbers of individuals requiring assistance. This creates a pressing need for efficient and safe assistive devices, particularly in light of heightened demand due to war-related injuries. While cost has been a barrier to accessibility, technological progress is able to democratize these solutions. Safety remains a paramount concern, especially given the intricate interactions between assistive robots and humans. This study explores the application of reinforcement learning (RL) and imitation learning, in improving policy design for assistive robots. The proposed approach makes the risky policies safer without additional environmental interactions. Through experimentation using simulated environments, the enhancement of the conventional RL approaches in tasks related to assistive robotics is demonstrated.
