Guided Diffusion with Distilled Vision-Language Reliability for Aerial Navigation
Ivan Valuev, Iana Zhura, Valerii Serpiva +2
Autonomous UAV navigation is conventionally solved by pipelines that separate perception, mapping, and planning into distinct stages, which propagates errors, accumulates latency,…
AgenticDiffusion: Agentic Diffusion-based Path Planning for Vision-Based UAV Navigation
Faryal Batool, Muhammad Ahsan Mustafa, Fawad Mehboob +2
Indoor UAV navigation requires efficient exploration, scene understanding, and reliable trajectory execution under limited field-of-view observations. Existing vision-based navigat…
DreamToNav: Generalizable Navigation for Robots via Generative Video Planning
Valerii Serpiva, Jeffrin Sam, Chidera Simon +4
We present DreamToNav, a novel autonomous robot framework that uses generative video models to enable intuitive, human-in-the-loop control. Instead of relying on rigid waypoint nav…
DiffusionCinema: Text-to-Aerial Cinematography
Valerii Serpiva, Artem Lykov, Jeffrin Sam +2
We propose a novel Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) assisted creative capture system that leverages diffusion models to interpret high-level natural language prompts and automaticall…
HumanDiffusion: A Vision-Based Diffusion Trajectory Planner with Human-Conditioned Goals for Search and Rescue UAV
Faryal Batool, Iana Zhura, Valerii Serpiva +4
Reliable human--robot collaboration in emergency scenarios requires autonomous systems that can detect humans, infer navigation goals, and operate safely in dynamic environments. T…
EmbodiedDiffusion: End-to-End Traversability-Guided Visual Diffusion for Heterogeneous Robot Navigation
Iana Zhura, Sausar Karaf, Faryal Batool +7
Visual traversability estimation is central to autonomous navigation, yet most approaches either rely on prompt-driven Vision-Language Model (VLM) or decouple traversability from t…
