Reasoning with scene graphs for robot planning under partial observability

S Amiri, K Chandan, S Zhang - IEEE Robotics and Automation …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Robot planning in partially observable domains is difficult, because a robot needs to
estimate the current state and plan actions at the same time. When the domain includes …

A system for generalized 3d multi-object search

K Zheng, A Paul, S Tellex - 2023 IEEE International …, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Searching for objects is a fundamental skill for robots. As such, we expect object search to
eventually become an off-the-shelf capability for robots, similar to eg, object detection and …
