Predicting Long-Term Human Behaviors in Discrete Representations via Physics-Guided Diffusion
Zhitian Zhang, Anjian Li, Angelica Lim +1
Long-term human trajectory prediction is a challenging yet critical task in robotics and autonomous systems. Prior work that studied how to predict accurate short-term human trajec…
An MCTS-DRL Based Obstacle and Occlusion Avoidance Methodology in Robotic Follow-Ahead Applications
Sahar Leisiazar, Edward J. Park, Angelica Lim +1
We propose a novel methodology for robotic follow-ahead applications that address the critical challenge of obstacle and occlusion avoidance. Our approach effectively navigates the…
Towards Inclusive HRI: Using Sim2Real to Address Underrepresentation in Emotion Expression Recognition
Saba Akhyani, Mehryar Abbasi Boroujeni, Mo Chen +1
Robots and artificial agents that interact with humans should be able to do so without bias and inequity, but facial perception systems have notoriously been found to work more poo…
SFU-Store-Nav: A Multimodal Dataset for Indoor Human Navigation
Zhitian Zhang, Jimin Rhim, Taher Ahmadi +3
This article describes a dataset collected in a set of experiments that involves human participants and a robot. The set of experiments was conducted in the computing science robot…
