STARS: From Spatiotemporal Dynamics to Social Representations in Human-Robot Interaction
Nathan Tsoi, Michael J. Munje, Tejas Oberoi +5
Robot navigation in dynamic, human-centered environments requires socially-compliant decisions grounded in robust scene understanding. Recent Vision-Language Models (VLMs) exhibit…
Adapting Generalist Vehicle Models for High-Speed MPC Across Terrains
Rwik Rana, Jesse Quattrociocchi, Christian Ellis +3
High-speed off-road autonomy requires precise closed-loop control for a target vehicle while remaining robust across changing terrains. Recent forward kinodynamic (FKD) prediction…
A Causal Approach to Predicting and Improving Human Perceptions of Social Navigation Robots
Maximilian Diehl, Nathan Tsoi, Gustavo Chavez +2
As mobile robots are increasingly deployed in human environments, enabling them to predict how people perceive them is critical for socially adaptable navigation. Predicting percep…
Few-Shot Inference of Human Perceptions of Robot Performance in Social Navigation Scenarios
Qiping Zhang, Nathan Tsoi, Mofeed Nagib +2
Understanding how humans evaluate robot behavior during human-robot interactions is crucial for developing socially aware robots that behave according to human expectations. While…
Aligning Multiclass Neural Network Classifier Criterion with Task Performance Metrics
Deyuan Li, Taesoo Daniel Lee, Marynel Vázquez +1
Multiclass neural network classifiers are typically trained using cross-entropy loss but evaluated using metrics derived from the confusion matrix, such as Accuracy, -Score, a…
Learning Human Preferences Over Robot Behavior as Soft Planning Constraints
Austin Narcomey, Nathan Tsoi, Ruta Desai +1
Preference learning has long been studied in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) in order to adapt robot behavior to specific user needs and desires. Typically, human preferences are mod…
