Sampling-Based Model Predictive Control Leveraging Parallelizable Physics Simulations

RA-L 2025

We present a sampling-based model predictive control method that uses a generic physics simulator as the dynamical model. In particular, we propose a Model Predictive Path Integral controller (MPPI) that employs the GPU-parallelizable IsaacGym simulator to compute the forward dynamics of the robot a

Demonstrating Adaptive Mobile Manipulation in Retail Environments

RSS 2024poster

Although autonomous robots have great potential to boost efficiency and throughput across the whole retail chain, they are mostly being deployed in large warehouses and distribution centers. Deploying robots in stores with customers, such as supermarkets, requires substantially more development effo…

Multi-Modal MPPI and Active Inference for Reactive Task and Motion Planning

RA-L 2024

Task and Motion Planning (TAMP) has made strides in complex manipulation tasks, yet the execution robustness of the planned solutions remains overlooked. In this work, we propose a method for reactive TAMP to cope with runtime uncertainties and disturbances. We combine an Active Inference planner (A

Improving Pedestrian Prediction Models With Self-Supervised Continual Learning

RA-L 2022

Autonomous mobile robots require accurate human motion predictions to safely and efficiently navigate among pedestrians, whose behavior may adapt to environmental changes. This letter introduces a self-supervised continual learning framework to improve data-driven pedestrian prediction models online
