Flow-Opt: Scalable Centralized Multi-Robot Trajectory Optimization with Flow Matching and Differentiable Optimization
Simon Idoko, Prajyot Jadhav, Arun Kumar Singh
Centralized trajectory optimization in the joint space of multiple robots allows access to a larger feasible space that can result in smoother trajectories, especially while planni…
CrowdSurfer: Sampling Optimization Augmented with Vector-Quantized Variational AutoEncoder for Dense Crowd Navigation
Naman Kumar, Antareep Singha, Laksh Nanwani +6
Navigation amongst densely packed crowds remains a challenge for mobile robots. The complexity increases further if the environment layout changes, making the prior computed global…
Swarm-Gen: Fast Generation of Diverse Feasible Swarm Behaviors
Simon Idoko, B. Bhanu Teja, K. Madhava Krishna +1
Coordination behavior in robot swarms is inherently multi-modal in nature. That is, there are numerous ways in which a swarm of robots can avoid inter-agent collisions and reach th…
Learning Sampling Distribution and Safety Filter for Autonomous Driving with VQ-VAE and Differentiable Optimization
Simon Idoko, Basant Sharma, Arun Kumar Singh
Sampling trajectories from a distribution followed by ranking them based on a specified cost function is a common approach in autonomous driving. Typically, the sampling distributi…
