— Service robots designed for domestic settings need to navigate in an environment that they have to share with their users. Thus, they have to be able to report their current st...
Abstract— We present a simple randomized POMDP algorithm for planning with continuous actions in partially observable environments. Our algorithm operates on a set of reachable b...
Of several possible forms of human-robot collaborative manipulation, we focus on the case where the human and the robot jointlymanipulate a common load. In our formulation, the ro...
