N2M: Bridging Navigation and Manipulation by Learning Pose Preference from Rollout

ICML 2026poster

Determining where to execute the manipulation policy is a fundamental challenge in mobile manipulation. Most approaches have formulated this as a geometric search problem, prioritizing physical reachability. However, given the high sensitivity of modern learning-based manipulation policies, geometri…

LF-3PM: a LiDAR-based Framework for Perception-aware Planning with Perturbation-induced Metric

IROS 2024poster

Just as humans can become disoriented in featureless deserts or thick fogs, not all environments are conducive to the Localization Accuracy and Stability (LAS) of autonomous robots. This paper introduces an efficient framework designed to enhance LiDAR-based LAS through strategic trajectory generati…

An Efficient Trajectory Planner for Car-Like Robots on Uneven Terrain

IROS 2023poster

Autonomous navigation of ground robots on uneven terrain is being considered in more and more tasks. However, uneven terrain will bring two problems to motion planning: how to assess the traversability of the terrain and how to cope with the dynamics model of the robot associated with the terrain. T…
