Service robots must retrieve objects in dynamic, open-world settings where requests may reference attributes (“the red mug”), spatial context (“the mug on the table”), or past states (“the mug that was here yesterday”). Existing approaches capture only parts of this problem: scene graphs capture spa…
Robots responsible for tasks over long time scales must be able to localize consistently and scalably amid geometric, viewpoint, and appearance changes. Existing visual SLAM approaches rely on low-level feature descriptors that are not robust to such environmental changes and result in large map siz
Robots deployed in settings such as warehouses and parking lots must cope with frequent and substantial changes when localizing in their environments. While many previous localization and mapping algorithms have explored methods of identifying and focusing on long-term features to handle change in s…
