High-speed robot navigation using predicted occupancy maps

KD Katyal, A Polevoy, J Moore, C Knuth… - … on Robotics and …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Safe and high-speed navigation is a key enabling capability for real world deployment of
robotic systems. A significant limitation of existing approaches is the computational bottleneck …

Complex terrain navigation via model error prediction

A Polevoy, C Knuth, KM Popek… - … conference on robotics …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Robot navigation traditionally relies on building an explicit map that is used to plan collision-free
trajectories to a desired target. In deformable, complex terrain, using geometric-based …

Inferring obstacles and path validity from visibility-constrained demonstrations

C Knuth, G Chou, N Ozay, D Berenson - International Workshop on the …, 2020 - Springer
Many methods in learning from demonstration assume that the demonstrator has knowledge
of the full environment. However, in many scenarios, a demonstrator only sees part of the …

Generative Planning with Fast Collision Checks for High Speed Navigation

C Knuth, C Dimmig, B Bittner - arXiv preprint arXiv:2405.04498, 2024 - arxiv.org
Reasoning about large numbers of diverse plans to achieve high speed navigation in
cluttered environments remains a challenge for robotic systems even in the case of perfect …

Lightweight uncertainty quantification with simplex semantic segmentation for terrain traversability

…, G Burghouts, KD Katyal, BY Yeh, CT Knuth… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
For navigation of robots, image segmentation is an important component to determining a
terrain's traversability. For safe and efficient navigation, it is key to assess the uncertainty of the …
