MERGE: Guided Vision-Language Models for Multi-Actor Event Reasoning and Grounding in Human-Robot Interaction

Joerg Deigmoeller, Nakul Agarwal, Stephan Hasler +8

We introduce MERGE, a system for situational grounding of actors, objects, and events in dynamic human-robot group interactions. Effective collaboration in such settings requires c…
