G2-Nav: Grounded and Guarded Vision-Language Costmaps for Robot Social Navigation
Yuwen Liao, Yihang Lan, Yizhuo Yang +4
Social navigation requires the robot to reason and respond in complex real-world environments. While recent works attempt to incorporate human-level intelligence into robot plannin…
CleanUpBench: Embodied Sweeping and Grasping Benchmark
Wenbo Li, Guanting Chen, Tao Zhao +5
Embodied AI benchmarks have advanced navigation, manipulation, and reasoning, but most target complex humanoid agents or large-scale simulations that are far from real-world deploy…
Following Is All You Need: Robot Crowd Navigation Using People As Planners
Yuwen Liao, Xinhang Xu, Ruofei Bai +4
Navigating in crowded environments requires the robot to be equipped with high-level reasoning and planning techniques. Existing works focus on developing complex and heavyweight p…
AToM: Adaptive Theory-of-Mind-Based Human Motion Prediction in Long-Term Human-Robot Interactions
Yuwen Liao, Muqing Cao, Xinhang Xu +1
Humans learn from observations and experiences to adjust their behaviours towards better performance. Interacting with such dynamic humans is challenging, as the robot needs to pre…
Swept Volume-Aware Trajectory Planning and MPC Tracking for Multi-Axle Swerve-Drive AMRs
Tianxin Hu, Shenghai Yuan, Ruofei Bai +4
Multi-axle autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are set to revolutionize the future of robotics in logistics. As the backbone of next-generation solutions, these robots face a critical…
