Intent-Driven LLM Ensemble Planning for Flexible Multi-Robot Disassembly: Demonstration on EV Batteries
Cansu Erdogan, Cesar Alan Contreras, Alireza Rastegarpanah +2
This paper addresses the problem of planning complex manipulation tasks, in which multiple robots with different end-effectors and capabilities, informed by computer vision, must p…
First Responders' Perceptions of Semantic Information for Situational Awareness in Robot-Assisted Emergency Response
Tianshu Ruan, Zoe Betta, Georgios Tzoumas +2
This study investigates First Responders' (FRs) attitudes toward the use of semantic information and Situational Awareness (SA) in robotic systems during emergency operations. A st…
Hybrid Task and Motion Planning with Reactive Collision Handling for Multi-Robot Disassembly of Complex Products: Application to EV Batteries
Abdelaziz Shaarawy, Cansu Erdogan, Rustam Stolkin +1
This paper addresses the problem of multi-robot coordination for complex manipulation task sequences. We present a vision-driven task-and-motion planning (TAMP) framework for a rea…
Utilizing Vision-Language Models as Action Models for Intent Recognition and Assistance
Cesar Alan Contreras, Manolis Chiou, Alireza Rastegarpanah +2
Human-robot collaboration requires robots to quickly infer user intent, provide transparent reasoning, and assist users in achieving their goals. Our recent work introduced GUIDER,…
Probabilistic Human Intent Prediction for Mobile Manipulation: An Evaluation with Human-Inspired Constraints
Cesar Alan Contreras, Manolis Chiou, Alireza Rastegarpanah +2
Accurate inference of human intent enables human-robot collaboration without constraining human control or causing conflicts between humans and robots. We present GUIDER (Global Us…
An Exploratory Study on Human-Robot Interaction using Semantics-based Situational Awareness
Tianshu Ruan, Aniketh Ramesh, Rustam Stolkin +1
In this paper, we investigate the impact of high-level semantics (evaluation of the environment) on Human-Robot Teams (HRT) and Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) in the context of mobi…
GIFT: Geometry-Induced Functional Transfer for Category-level Object Manipulation
Cristiana de Farias, Luis Figueredo, Riddhiman Laha +5
Robotic manipulation of unfamiliar objects in new environments is challenging due to limited generalisation capabilities. We propose a new skill transfer framework, GIFT (Geometry-…
A Framework for Semantics-based Situational Awareness during Mobile Robot Deployments
Tianshu Ruan, Aniketh Ramesh, Hao Wang +6
Deployment of robots into hazardous environments typically involves a ``Human-Robot Teaming'' (HRT) paradigm, in which a human supervisor interacts with a remotely operating robot…
