• Abstract summary: This paper proposes a framework that allows an agent to perform different tasks. We integrate machine learning models to abstract the sensory data, symbolic planning for goal achievement and path planning for navigation. We evaluate the proposed method in accurate simulated environments, where the sensors are RGB-D on-board camera, GPS and compass.

• Abstract: To effectively use an abstract (PDDL) planning domain to achieve goals in an unknown environment, an agent must instantiate such a domain with the objects of the environment and their properties. If the agent has an egocentric and partial view of the environment, it needs to act, sense, and abstract the perceived data in the planning domain. Furthermore, the agent needs to compile the plans computed by a symbolic planner into low level actions executable by its actuators. This paper proposes a framework that aims to accomplish the aforementioned perspective and allows an agent to perform different tasks. For this purpose, we integrate machine learning models to abstract the sensory data, symbolic planning for goal achievement and path planning for navigation. We evaluate the proposed method in accurate simulated environments, where the sensors are RGB-D on-board camera, GPS and compass.

  We propose an embodied instruction following (EIF) method for complex tasks in the unknown environment. We build a hierarchical embodied instruction following framework including the high-level task planner and the low-level exploration controller. For the task planner, we generate the feasible step-by-step plans for human goal accomplishment according to the task completion process and the known visual clues.

  The Human Assisted Robotic Planning and Sensing (HARPS) framework is presented for active semantic sensing and planning in human-robot teams. This approach lets humans opportunistically impose model structure and extend the range of semantic soft data in uncertain environments. Simulations of a UAV-enabled target search application in a large-scale partially structured environment show significant improvements in time and belief state estimates.

We propose a hierarchical object-to-zone (HOZ) graph to guide the agent in a coarse-to-fine manner. Online-learning mechanism is also proposed to update HOZ according to the real-time observation in new environments.
