Advantage-Driven Explicit Memory for Social Navigation

Yeonsoo Park, Mattia Racca, Guillaume Bono +4

Robot policies are predominantly learned with classical parametric variants of imitation learning or RL, where training stores the agent's behavior exclusively in the policy's netw…

Compressing History into Memory: Distilling Transformers into Recurrent Transformers

Philippe Weinzaepfel, Christian Wolf, Bülent Mert Sariyildiz +3

Transformers are AI's workhorse but their computational cost becomes prohibitive when processing long sequences. We target long-horizon streaming vision and robotics applications,…

Kinaema: a recurrent sequence model for memory and pose in motion

Mert Bulent Sariyildiz, Philippe Weinzaepfel, Guillaume Bono +2

One key aspect of spatially aware robots is the ability to "find their bearings", ie. to correctly situate themselves in previously seen spaces. In this work, we focus on this part…

What does really matter in image goal navigation?

Gianluca Monaci, Philippe Weinzaepfel, Christian Wolf

Image goal navigation requires two different skills: firstly, core navigation skills, including the detection of free space and obstacles, and taking decisions based on an internal…

Reasoning in visual navigation of end-to-end trained agents: a dynamical systems approach

Steeven Janny, Hervé Poirier, Leonid Antsfeld +6

Progress in Embodied AI has made it possible for end-to-end-trained agents to navigate in photo-realistic environments with high-level reasoning and zero-shot or language-condition…

RANa: Retrieval-Augmented Navigation

Gianluca Monaci, Rafael S. Rezende, Romain Deffayet +5

Methods for navigation based on large-scale learning typically treat each episode as a new problem, where the agent is spawned with a clean memory in an unknown environment. While…

Zero-BEV: Zero-shot Projection of Any First-Person Modality to BEV Maps

Gianluca Monaci, Leonid Antsfeld, Boris Chidlovskii +1

Bird's-eye view (BEV) maps are an important geometrically structured representation widely used in robotics, in particular self-driving vehicles and terrestrial robots. Existing al…

Learning to navigate efficiently and precisely in real environments

Guillaume Bono, Hervé Poirier, Leonid Antsfeld +3

In the context of autonomous navigation of terrestrial robots, the creation of realistic models for agent dynamics and sensing is a widespread habit in the robotics literature and…

Learning whom to trust in navigation: dynamically switching between classical and neural planning

Sombit Dey, Assem Sadek, Gianluca Monaci +2

Navigation of terrestrial robots is typically addressed either with localization and mapping (SLAM) followed by classical planning on the dynamically created maps, or by machine le…

Learning with a Mole: Transferable latent spatial representations for navigation without reconstruction

Guillaume Bono, Leonid Antsfeld, Assem Sadek +2

Agents navigating in 3D environments require some form of memory, which should hold a compact and actionable representation of the history of observations useful for decision takin…
