We present a novel reasoning approach called Flow-of-Options (FoO), designed to address intrinsic biases in Large Language Models (LLMs). Flow-of-Options enables LLMs to systematically explore a diverse range of possibilities in their reasoning, as demonstrated by an FoO-based agentic framework deve…
We advocate for a strong integration of Computational Creativity (CC) with research in large language and vision models (LLVMs) to address a key limitation of these models, i.e., creative problem solving. We present preliminary experiments showing how CC principles can be applied to address this lim…
Creative Problem Solving (CPS) is a sub-area within artificial intelligence that focuses on methods for solving off-nominal, or anomalous problems in autonomous systems. Despite many advancements in planning and learning in AI, resolving novel problems or adapting existing knowledge to a new context…
Requiring multiple demonstrations of a task plan presents a burden to end-users of robots. However, robustly executing tasks plans from a single end-user demonstration is an ongoing challenge in robotics. We address the problem of one-shot task execution, in which a robot must generalize a single de…
MacGyvering is defined as creating or repairing something in an inventive or improvised way by utilizing objects that are available at hand. In this paper, we explore a subset of Macgyvering problems involving tool construction, i.e., creating tools from parts available in the environment. We formal…
