VeRO: An Evaluation Harness for Agents to Optimize Agents

ICML 2026poster

An important emerging application of coding agents is *agent optimization*: the iterative improvement of a *target agent* through edit–execute–evaluate cycles. Despite its relevance, the community lacks a systematic understanding of coding agent performance on this task. Agent optimization differs f…

Closing the Perception-Action Loop for Semantically Safe Navigation in Semi-Static Environments

ICRA 2024poster

Autonomous robots navigating in changing environments demand adaptive navigation strategies for safe long-term operation. While many modern control paradigms offer theoretical guarantees, they often assume known extrinsic safety constraints, overlooking challenges when deployed in real-world environ…

POV-SLAM: Probabilistic Object-Aware Variational SLAM in Semi-Static Environments

RSS 2023poster

Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) in slowly varying scenes is important for long-term robot task completion in GPS-denied environments. Failing to detect scene changes may lead to inaccurate maps and, ultimately, lost robots. Classical SLAM algorithms assume static scenes, and recent work…
