                            - The contribution of this paper is in introducing the concept of “Fuzzy Transfer Learning” specifically applied to assistive robotics.  Once the human activity is understood/learnt, an assistive robot would be able to carry similar tasks. The significance of this paper is that our approach has been validated on experimental dataset created for this work and on a benchmark dataset. A short version of this paper was originally presented in the UK Computational Intelligence, UKCI’2017, in Cardiff University (www.cardiff.ac.uk/conferences/ukci2017) and it was awarded as the best paper. We were invited to present an extended version of our work in this paper.
