• Abstract summary: We propose Deep Planning Domain Learning (DPDL) to learn a hierarchical model. DPDL learns a high-level model which predicts values for a set of logical predicates consisting of the current symbolic world state. This allows us to perform complex, multi-step tasks even when the robot has not been explicitly trained on them.

• Abstract: While robots can learn models to solve many manipulation tasks from raw visual input, they cannot usually use these models to solve new problems. On the other hand, symbolic planning methods such as STRIPS have long been able to solve new problems given only a domain definition and a symbolic goal, but these approaches often struggle on the real world robotic tasks due to the challenges of grounding these symbols from sensor data in a partially-observable world. We propose Deep Planning Domain Learning (DPDL), an approach that combines the strengths of both methods to learn a hierarchical model. DPDL learns a high-level model which predicts values for a large set of logical predicates consisting of the current symbolic world state, and separately learns a low-level policy which translates symbolic operators into executable actions on the robot. This allows us to perform complex, multi-step tasks even when the robot has not been explicitly trained on them. We show our method on manipulation tasks in a photorealistic kitchen scenario.

  We propose a novel flow matching architecture built on top of a pre-trained vision-language model (VLM) to inherit Internet-scale semantic knowledge. We evaluate our model in terms of its ability to perform tasks in zero shot after pre-training, follow language instructions from people, and its ability to acquire new skills via fine-tuning.

  We introduce Wonderful Team, a multi-agent Vision Large Language Model (VLLM) framework designed to solve robotics problems in a zero-shot regime. In our context, zero-shot means that for a novel environment, we provide a VLLM with an image of the robot's surroundings and a task description. Our system showcases the ability to handle diverse tasks such as manipulation, goal-reaching, and visual reasoning -- all in a zero-shot manner.

The learned representations constitute auto-invented PDDL-like domain models. Empirical results in deterministic settings show that powerful abstract representations can be learned from just a handful of robot trajectories.

• Learning Efficient Abstract Planning Models that Choose What to Predict [28.013014215441505]
  We show that existing symbolic operator learning approaches fall short in many robotics domains. This is primarily because they attempt to learn operators that exactly predict all observed changes in the abstract state. We propose to learn operators that 'choose what to predict' by only modelling changes necessary for abstract planning to achieve specified goals.

  Decision-making is challenging in robotics environments with continuous object-centric states, continuous actions, long horizons, and sparse feedback. Hierarchical approaches, such as task and motion planning (TAMP), address these challenges by decomposing decision-making into two or more levels of abstraction. Our main contribution is a method for learning parameterized polices in combination with operators and samplers.

  In this work, we take a step toward bridging the gap between model-based reinforcement learning and integrated symbolic-geometric robotic planning. NSRTs have both symbolic and neural components, enabling a bilevel planning scheme where symbolic AI planning in an outer loop guides continuous planning with neural models in an inner loop. NSRTs can be learned after only tens or hundreds of training episodes, and then used for fast planning in new tasks that require up to 60 actions to reach the goal.

We experimentally evaluate our framework on a simulated reaching and a real-robot picking task using 400 simulated robots.
