Partially Observable Task and Motion Planning with Uncertainty and Risk Awareness

no code implementations15 Mar 2024 Aidan Curtis, George Matheos, Nishad Gothoskar, Vikash Mansinghka, Joshua Tenenbaum, Tomás Lozano-Pérez, Leslie Pack Kaelbling

We propose a strategy for TAMP with Uncertainty and Risk Awareness (TAMPURA) that is capable of efficiently solving long-horizon planning problems with initial-state and action outcome uncertainty, including problems that require information gathering and avoiding undesirable and irreversible outcomes.

We consider a setting where a robot is initially equipped with (1) a library of parameterized skills, (2) an AI planner for sequencing together the skills given a goal, and (3) a very general prior distribution for selecting skill parameters.

Active Learning of Abstract Plan Feasibility

no code implementations1 Jul 2021 Michael Noseworthy, Caris Moses, Isaiah Brand, Sebastian Castro, Leslie Kaelbling, Tomás Lozano-Pérez, Nicholas Roy

Long horizon sequential manipulation tasks are effectively addressed hierarchically: at a high level of abstraction the planner searches over abstract action sequences, and when a plan is found, lower level motion plans are generated.

Planning for Multi-stage Forceful Manipulation

no code implementations7 Jan 2021 Rachel Holladay, Tomás Lozano-Pérez, Alberto Rodriguez

The robot must choose a sequence of discrete actions, or strategy, such as whether to pick up an object, and the continuous parameters of each of those actions, such as how to grasp the object.
