From Woofs to Words: Towards Intelligent Robotic Guide Dogs with Verbal Communication
Yohei Hayamizu, David DeFazio, Hrudayangam Mehta +7
Assistive robotics is an important subarea of robotics that focuses on the well-being of people with disabilities. A robotic guide dog is an assistive quadruped robot that helps vi…
Vision Language Models Can Parse Floor Plan Maps
David DeFazio, Hrudayangam Mehta, Meng Wang +3
Vision language models (VLMs) can simultaneously reason about images and texts to tackle many tasks, from visual question answering to image captioning. This paper focuses on map p…
Seeing-Eye Quadruped Navigation with Force Responsive Locomotion Control
David DeFazio, Eisuke Hirota, Shiqi Zhang
Seeing-eye robots are very useful tools for guiding visually impaired people, potentially producing a huge societal impact given the low availability and high cost of real guide do…
Learning Quadruped Locomotion Policies using Logical Rules
David DeFazio, Yohei Hayamizu, Shiqi Zhang
Quadruped animals are capable of exhibiting a diverse range of locomotion gaits. While progress has been made in demonstrating such gaits on robots, current methods rely on motion…
RelEx: A Model-Agnostic Relational Model Explainer
Yue Zhang, David Defazio, Arti Ramesh
In recent years, considerable progress has been made on improving the interpretability of machine learning models. This is essential, as complex deep learning models with millions…
Adversarial Model Extraction on Graph Neural Networks
David DeFazio, Arti Ramesh
Along with the advent of deep neural networks came various methods of exploitation, such as fooling the classifier or contaminating its training data. Another such attack is known…
