Complete coverage of multiple robots for a large map is an important collaborative planning task, which is widely used in disaster search and rescue, forest fire prevention, resource exploration, and other fields. It generally focuses on coverage completion with less robot (mostly drone) occupation
Generative policies trained with human demonstrations can autonomously accomplish multimodal, longhorizon tasks. However, during inference, humans are often removed from the policy execution loop, limiting the ability to guide a pre-trained policy towards a specific sub-goal or trajectory shape amon
Humans are remarkably adept at collaboration, able to infer the strengths and weaknesses of new partners in order to work successfully towards shared goals. To build AI systems with this capability, we must first understand its building blocks: does such flexibility require explicit, dedicated mecha…
Previous methods for Learning from Demonstration leverage several approaches for a human to teach motions to a robot, including teleoperation, kinesthetic teaching, and natural demonstrations. However, little previous work has explored more general interfaces that allow for multiple demonstration ty
Grounding the common-sense reasoning of Large Language Models in physical domains remains a pivotal yet unsolved problem for embodied AI. Whereas prior works have focused on leveraging LLMs directly for planning in symbolic spaces, this work uses LLMs to guide the search of task structures and const…
One powerful paradigm in visual navigation is to predict actions from observations directly. Training such an end-to-end system allows representations useful for downstream tasks to emerge automatically. However, the lack of inductive bias makes this system data inefficient. We hypothesize a suffici…
Learning from demonstration (LfD) has successfully solved tasks featuring a long time horizon. However, when the problem complexity also includes human-in-the-loop perturbations, state-of-the-art approaches do not guarantee the successful reproduction of a task. In this work, we identify the roots o…
