TRACE: Traversability-aware Reactive Navigation via VLM-driven Adaptive Constraints Estimation
Mario A. V. Saucedo, Midhun Edatharam Kunnath, Elias Small +4
This paper presents TRACE, a traversability-aware reactive navigation framework designed for the autonomous operation of ground robots in unstructured forest environments. Unlike t…
Towards Spatial Perception for Heterogeneous Robot Collaboration in Subterranean Mining Environments
Mario Alberto Valdes Saucedo, Akash Patel, Christoforos Kanellakis +1
The autonomous extraction of deep mineral deposits in abandoned underground mines is fundamentally a multi-agent integration problem. No single platform simultaneously offers the m…
Estimating Semantic Ambiguity via Gaussian Context Distributions for VLM-Driven Traversability Analysis
Ramona Häuselmann, Mario A. V. Saucedo, Christoforos Kanellakis +1
Autonomous navigation in unstructured environments requires robust scene understanding, yet Vision-Language Models (VLMs) often suffer from semantic ambiguity, where conflicting pr…
