PDDL-ART: Autonomous Symbolic Abstraction From Demonstration For Long-Horizon Robotic Manipulation Using Vision-Language Models

Disha Kamale, Dmitry Berenson

Symbolic planning with PDDL offers a principled framework for long-horizon robot manipulation, but constructing accurate PDDL domain and problem descriptions remains a significant…

Motion Planning as Online Learning: A Multi-Armed Bandit Approach to Kinodynamic Sampling-Based Planning

Marco Faroni, Dmitry Berenson

Kinodynamic motion planners allow robots to perform complex manipulation tasks under dynamics constraints or with black-box models. However, they struggle to find high-quality solu…

CHSEL: Producing Diverse Plausible Pose Estimates from Contact and Free Space Data

Sheng Zhong, Nima Fazeli, Dmitry Berenson

This paper proposes a novel method for estimating the set of plausible poses of a rigid object from a set of points with volumetric information, such as whether each point is in fr…
