OpenMORE: an open-source tool for sampling-based path replanning in ROS
Cesare Tonola, Manuel Beschi, Marco Faroni +1
With the spread of robots in unstructured, dynamic environments, the topic of path replanning has gained importance in the robotics community. Although the number of replanning str…
Motion Planning as Online Learning: A Multi-Armed Bandit Approach to Kinodynamic Sampling-Based Planning
Marco Faroni, Dmitry Berenson
Kinodynamic motion planners allow robots to perform complex manipulation tasks under dynamics constraints or with black-box models. However, they struggle to find high-quality solu…
Spatio-Temporal Avoidance of Predicted Occupancy in Human-Robot Collaboration
Jared Flowers, Marco Faroni, Gloria Wiens +1
This paper addresses human-robot collaboration (HRC) challenges of integrating predictions of human activity to provide a proactive-n-reactive response capability for the robot. Pr…
Optimal task and motion planning and execution for human-robot multi-agent systems in dynamic environments
Marco Faroni, Alessandro Umbrico, Manuel Beschi +3
Combining symbolic and geometric reasoning in multi-agent systems is a challenging task that involves planning, scheduling, and synchronization problems. Existing works overlooked…
Hiding task-oriented programming complexity: an industrial case study
Enrico Villagrossi, Michele Delledonne, Marco Faroni +2
The ease of use of robot programming interfaces represents a barrier to robot adoption in several manufacturing sectors because of the need for more expertise from the end-users. C…
Learning Action Duration and Synergy in Task Planning for Human-Robot Collaboration
Samuele Sandrini, Marco Faroni, Nicola Pedrocchi
A good estimation of the actions' cost is key in task planning for human-robot collaboration. The duration of an action depends on agents' capabilities and the correlation between…
Safety-aware time-optimal motion planning with uncertain human state estimation
Marco Faroni, Manuel Beschi, Nicola Pedrocchi
Human awareness in robot motion planning is crucial for seamless interaction with humans. Many existing techniques slow down, stop, or change the robot's trajectory locally to avoi…
Adaptive Hybrid Local-Global Sampling for Fast Informed Sampling-Based Optimal Path Planning
Marco Faroni, Nicola Pedrocchi, Manuel Beschi
This paper improves the performance of RRT-like sampling-based path planners by combining admissible informed sampling and local sampling (i.e., sampling the neighborhood of th…
Anytime informed path re-planning and optimization for robots in changing environments
Cesare Tonola, Marco Faroni, Nicola Pedrocchi +1
In this paper, we propose a path re-planning algorithm that makes robots able to work in scenarios with moving obstacles. The algorithm switches between a set of pre-computed paths…
