• Abstract: Autonomous robots need to plan the tasks they carry out to fulfill their missions. The missions' increasing complexity does not let human designers anticipate all the possible situations, so traditional control systems based on state machines are not enough. This paper contains a description of the ROS2 Planning System (PlanSys2 in short), a framework for symbolic planning that incorporates novel approaches for execution on robots working in demanding environments. PlanSys2 aims to be the reference task planning framework in ROS2, the latest version of the {\em de facto} standard in robotics software development. Among its main features, it can be highlighted the optimized execution, based on Behavior Trees, of plans through a new actions auction protocol and its multi-robot planning capabilities. It already has a small but growing community of users and developers, and this document is a summary of the design and capabilities of this project.

  An interactive robot framework accomplishes long-horizon task planning and can easily generalize to new goals or distinct tasks, even during execution. Recent large language model based approaches can allow for more open-ended planning but often require heavy prompt engineering or domain-specific pretrained models. We propose a simple framework that achieves interactive task planning with language models.

• Learning to Reason over Scene Graphs: A Case Study of Finetuning GPT-2 into a Robot Language Model for Grounded Task Planning [45.51792981370957]
  We investigate the applicability of a smaller class of large language models (LLMs) in robotic task planning by learning to decompose tasks into subgoal specifications for a planner to execute sequentially. Our method grounds the input of the LLM on the domain that is represented as a scene graph, enabling it to translate human requests into executable robot plans. Our findings suggest that the knowledge stored in an LLM can be effectively grounded to perform long-horizon task planning, demonstrating the promising potential for the future application of neuro-symbolic planning methods in robotics.

  Task planning is an important component of traditional robotics systems enabling robots to compose fine grained skills to perform more complex tasks. Recent work building systems for translating natural language to executable actions for task completion in simulated embodied agents is focused on directly predicting low level action sequences. We focus on predicting a higher level plan representation for one such embodied task completion dataset - TEACh.

  We present a framework aimed at bridging the gap between symbolic task planning and machine learning approaches. The rationale is training Large Language Models (LLMs) into a neurosymbolic task planner compatible with the Planning Domain Definition Language (PDDL) Preliminary results in selected domains show that our method can: (i) solve 95.5% of problems in a test data set of 1,000 samples; (ii) produce plans up to 13.5% shorter than a traditional symbolic planner; (iii) reduce average overall waiting times for a plan availability by up to 61.4%.

We demonstrate our approach on long-horizon tasks in CoppeliaSim and show how learned action contexts can be extended to never-before-seen scenarios.

• Knowledge-Based Hierarchical POMDPs for Task Planning [0.34998703934432684]
  The main goal in task planning is to build a sequence of actions that takes an agent from an initial state to a goal state. In robotics, this is particularly difficult because actions usually have several possible results, and sensors are prone to produce measurements with error. We present a scheme to encode knowledge about the robot and its environment, that promotes the modularity and reuse of information.
