Pareto-Optimal Entropy-Regularized Trajectory Optimization

Dimitrios S. Georgiou, Augustinos D. Saravanos, Evangelos A. Theodorou

Trajectory optimization (TO) under nonlinear dynamics, actuation limits and collision avoidance constraints is a fundamental problem in robotics, albeit especially challenging due…

Bayesian Active Learning for Intent Disambiguation in Interactive Robot Planning

Huao Li, Carson Sobolewski, Augustinos Saravanos +3

Interactive robot planning requires robots to infer and execute human intentions from natural language instructions that are often ambiguous, incomplete, or underspecified. Althoug…
