Successfully addressing a wide variety of tasks is a core ability of autonomous agents requiring flexibly adapting the underlying decision-making strategies and as we argue in this work also adapting the perception modules. An analogical argument would be the human visual system which uses top-down…
Understanding and mapping a new environment are core abilities of any autonomously navigating agent. While classical robotics usually estimates maps in a stand-alone manner with SLAM variants, which maintain a topological or metric representation, end-to-end learning of navigation keeps some form of…
In the context of visual navigation, the capacity to map a novel environment is necessary for an agent to exploit its observation history in the considered place and efficiently reach known goals. This ability can be associated with spatial rea-soning, where an agent is able to perceive spatial rela…
