Energy-Constrained Navigation for Planetary Rovers under Hybrid RTG-Solar Power
Tianxin Hu, Weixiang Guo, Ruimeng Liu +5
Future planetary exploration rovers must operate for extended durations on hybrid power inputs that combine steady radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG) output with variable…
Adaptive Motorized LiDAR Scanning Control for Robust Localization with OpenStreetMap
Jianping Li, Kaisong Zhu, Zhongyuan Liu +4
LiDAR-to-OpenStreetMap (OSM) localization has gained increasing attention, as OSM provides lightweight global priors such as building footprints. These priors enhance global consis…
AEOS: Active Environment-aware Optimal Scanning Control for UAV LiDAR-Inertial Odometry in Complex Scenes
Jianping Li, Xinhang Xu, Zhongyuan Liu +3
LiDAR-based 3D perception and localization on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are fundamentally limited by the narrow field of view (FoV) of compact LiDAR sensors and the payload c…
Tire Wear Aware Trajectory Tracking Control for Multi-axle Swerve-drive Autonomous Mobile Robots
Tianxin Hu, Xinhang Xu, Thien-Minh Nguyen +3
Multi-axle Swerve-drive Autonomous Mobile Robots (MS-AGVs) equipped with independently steerable wheels are commonly used for high-payload transportation. In this work, we present…
Unsupervised Anomaly Detection for Autonomous Robots via Mahalanobis SVDD with Audio-IMU Fusion
Yizhuo Yang, Jiulin Zhao, Xinhang Xu +3
Reliable anomaly detection is essential for ensuring the safety of autonomous robots, particularly when conventional detection systems based on vision or LiDAR become unreliable in…
Following Is All You Need: Robot Crowd Navigation Using People As Planners
Yuwen Liao, Xinhang Xu, Ruofei Bai +4
Navigating in crowded environments requires the robot to be equipped with high-level reasoning and planning techniques. Existing works focus on developing complex and heavyweight p…
Handle Object Navigation as Weighted Traveling Repairman Problem
Ruimeng Liu, Xinhang Xu, Shenghai Yuan +1
Zero-Shot Object Navigation (ZSON) requires agents to navigate to objects specified via open-ended natural language without predefined categories or prior environmental knowledge.…
LiMo-Calib: On-Site Fast LiDAR-Motor Calibration for Quadruped Robot-Based Panoramic 3D Sensing System
Jianping Li, Zhongyuan Liu, Xinhang Xu +4
Conventional single LiDAR systems are inherently constrained by their limited field of view (FoV), leading to blind spots and incomplete environmental awareness, particularly on ro…
AToM: Adaptive Theory-of-Mind-Based Human Motion Prediction in Long-Term Human-Robot Interactions
Yuwen Liao, Muqing Cao, Xinhang Xu +1
Humans learn from observations and experiences to adjust their behaviours towards better performance. Interacting with such dynamic humans is challenging, as the robot needs to pre…
Cooperative Aerial Robot Inspection Challenge: A Benchmark for Heterogeneous Multi-UAV Planning and Lessons Learned
Muqing Cao, Thien-Minh Nguyen, Shenghai Yuan +12
We propose the Cooperative Aerial Robot Inspection Challenge (CARIC), a simulation-based benchmark for motion planning algorithms in heterogeneous multi-UAV systems. CARIC features…
