Online Structure Learning and Planning for Autonomous Robot Navigation using Active Inference
Daria de tinguy, Tim Verbelen, Emilio Gamba +1
Autonomous navigation in unfamiliar environments requires robots to simultaneously explore, localise, and plan under uncertainty, without relying on predefined maps or extensive tr…
Navigation and Exploration with Active Inference: from Biology to Industry
Daria de Tinguy, Tim Verbelen, Bart Dhoedt
By building and updating internal cognitive maps, animals exhibit extraordinary navigation abilities in complex, dynamic environments. Inspired by these biological mechanisms, we p…
Bio-Inspired Topological Autonomous Navigation with Active Inference in Robotics
Daria de Tinguy, Tim Verbelen, Emilio Gamba +1
Achieving fully autonomous exploration and navigation remains a critical challenge in robotics, requiring integrated solutions for localisation, mapping, decision-making and motion…
Learning Dynamic Cognitive Map with Autonomous Navigation
Daria de Tinguy, Tim Verbelen, Bart Dhoedt
Inspired by animal navigation strategies, we introduce a novel computational model to navigate and map a space rooted in biologically inspired principles. Animals exhibit extraordi…
