BPDA-GMM: Bayesian Probabilistic Data Association via Gaussian Mixture Models for Semantic SLAM
Thanh Nguyen Canh, Haolan Zhang, Xiem HoangVan +2
Probabilistic data association (PDA) improves semantic SLAM in perceptually aliased scenes, but existing methods often assume a fixed landmark set, recompute association weights as…
Moderating Group Conversation Dynamics with Social Robots
Lucrezia Grassi, Carmine Tommaso Recchiuto, Antonio Sgorbissa
This research investigates the impact of social robot participation in group conversations and assesses the effectiveness of various addressing policies. The study involved 300 par…
Efficient Frontier Management for Collaborative Active SLAM
Muhammad Farhan Ahmed, Matteo Maragliano, Vincent FremontCarmine +2
In autonomous robotics, a critical challenge lies in developing robust solutions for Active Collaborative SLAM, wherein multiple robots collaboratively explore and map an unknown e…
Labeling Sentences with Symbolic and Deictic Gestures via Semantic Similarity
Ariel Gjaci, Carmine Tommaso Recchiuto, Antonio Sgorbissa
Co-speech gesture generation on artificial agents has gained attention recently, mainly when it is based on data-driven models. However, end-to-end methods often fail to generate c…
Enhancing LLM-Based Human-Robot Interaction with Nuances for Diversity Awareness
Lucrezia Grassi, Carmine Tommaso Recchiuto, Antonio Sgorbissa
This paper presents a system for diversity-aware autonomous conversation leveraging the capabilities of large language models (LLMs). The system adapts to diverse populations and i…
