Interventional Causal Circuits for Safe Robot Action Testing and Failure Recovery

Naren Vasantakumaar, Tom Schierenbeck, Michael Beetz

The paper introduces a closed‑loop system that uses causal diagnosis to pinpoint why a robot action fails safety tests and suggests corrective parameter changes, reducing wasted re…

LLM-Guided Future Hypotheses for Horizon-Aware Exploration in Multi-Step Robot Manipulation

Mohammad Khoshnazar, Andrew Melnik, Michael Beetz

Multi-step robot manipulation requires acting under uncertainty about how the scene will evolve, making exploration and policy adaptation challenging. We study whether short-horizo…

Grounding Language Models with Semantic Digital Twins for Robotic Planning

Mehreen Naeem, Andrew Melnik, Michael Beetz

We introduce a novel framework that integrates Semantic Digital Twins (SDTs) with Large Language Models (LLMs) to enable adaptive and goal-driven robotic task execution in dynamic…
