Exploiting stochastic locality in lattice QCD: hadronic observables and their uncertainties

Mattia Bruno, Marco Cè, Anthony Francis +4

Because of the mass gap, lattice QCD simulations exhibit stochastic locality: distant regions of the lattice fluctuate independently. There is a long history of exploiting this to…

Principles and Guidelines for Evaluating Social Robot Navigation Algorithms

Anthony Francis, Claudia Pérez-D'Arpino, Chengshu Li +28

A major challenge to deploying robots widely is navigation in human-populated environments, commonly referred to as social robot navigation. While the field of social navigation ha…

Hadronic observables from master-field simulations

Marco Cè, Mattia Bruno, John Bulava +5

Substantial progress has been made recently in the generation of master-field ensembles. This has to be paired with efficient techniques to compute observables on gauge field confi…

QCD thermodynamics with stabilized Wilson fermions

Rocco Francesco Basta, Bastian B. Brandt, Francesca Cuteri +2

Stabilized Wilson fermions are a reformulation of Wilson clover fermions that incorporates several numerical stabilizing techniques, but also a local change of the fermion action -…

Translating topological benefits in very cold lattice simulations

Mattia Bruno, Marco Cè, Anthony Francis +3

Master-field simulations offer an approach to lattice QCD in which calculations are performed on a small number of large-volume gauge-field configurations. The latter is advantageo…

Viscosity of pure-glue QCD from the lattice

Luis Altenkort, Alexander M. Eller, Anthony Francis +4

We calculate shear viscosity and bulk viscosity in SU(3) gauge theory on the lattice at . The viscosities are extracted via a Kubo formula from the reconstructed spectra…

Gesture2Path: Imitation Learning for Gesture-aware Navigation

Catie Cuan, Edward Lee, Emre Fisher +5

As robots increasingly enter human-centered environments, they must not only be able to navigate safely around humans, but also adhere to complex social norms. Humans often rely on…

A Protocol for Validating Social Navigation Policies

Sören Pirk, Edward Lee, Xuesu Xiao +3

Enabling socially acceptable behavior for situated agents is a major goal of recent robotics research. Robots should not only operate safely around humans, but also abide by comple…

Good and bad diquark properties and spatial correlations in lattice QCD

Anthony Francis, Philippe De Forcrand, Randy Lewis +1

We study good, bad and not-even-bad diquarks on the lattice in a gauge-invariant formalism in full QCD. We establish their spectral masses with short extrapolations to the physical…

Learning Navigation Behaviors End-to-End with AutoRL

Hao-Tien Lewis Chiang, Aleksandra Faust, Marek Fiser +1

We learn end-to-end point-to-point and path-following navigation behaviors that avoid moving obstacles. These policies receive noisy lidar observations and output robot linear and…
