Rigid object manipulation with robots has mainly relied on precise, expensive models and deterministic sequences. Given the great complexity of accurately modeling deformable objects, their manipulation seems to call for a rather different approach. This paper proposes a probabilistic planner, based on a Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP), targeted at reducing the inherent uncertainty of deformable object sorting. It is shown that a small set of unreliable actions and inaccurate perceptions suffices to accomplish the task, provided faithful statistics on both of them are collected beforehand. The planner has been applied to a clothes sorting task in a real case context with a depth and color sensor and a robotic arm. Experimental results show the promise of the approach since more than 95% certainty of having isolated a piece of clothing is reached in an average of four steps for quite entangled initial clothing configurations.
