Moving in dynamic pedestrian environments is one of the important requirements for autonomous mobile robots. We present a model-based reinforcement learning approach for robots to navigate through crowded environments. The navigation policy is trained with both real interaction data from multi-agent simulation and virtual data from a deep transition model that predicts the evolution of surrounding dynamics of mobile robots. The model takes laser scan sequence and robots own state as input and outputs steering control. The laser sequence is further transformed into stacked local obstacle maps disentangled from robots ego motion to separate the static and dynamic obstacles, simplifying the model training. We observe that our method can be trained with significantly less real interaction data in simulator but achieve similar level of success rate in social navigation task compared with other methods. Experiments were conducted in multiple social scenarios both in simulation and on real robots, the learned policy can guide the robots to the final targets successfully while avoiding pedestrians in a socially compliant manner.

In this paper, we present the Role Playing Learning (RPL) scheme for a mobile robot to navigate socially with its human companion in populated environments. Neural networks (NN) are constructed to parameterize a stochastic policy that directly maps s
ensory data collected by the robot to its velocity outputs, while respecting a set of social norms. An efficient simulative learning environment is built with maps and pedestrians trajectories collected from a number of real-world crowd data sets. In each learning iteration, a robot equipped with the NN policy is created virtually in the learning environment to play itself as a companied pedestrian and navigate towards a goal in a socially concomitant manner. Thus, we call this process Role Playing Learning, which is formulated under a reinforcement learning (RL) framework. The NN policy is optimized end-to-end using Trust Region Policy Optimization (TRPO), with consideration of the imperfectness of robots sensor measurements. Simulative and experimental results are provided to demonstrate the efficacy and superiority of our method.
Mobility in an effective and socially-compliant manner is an essential yet challenging task for robots operating in crowded spaces. Recent works have shown the power of deep reinforcement learning techniques to learn socially cooperative policies. Ho
wever, their cooperation ability deteriorates as the crowd grows since they typically relax the problem as a one-way Human-Robot interaction problem. In this work, we want to go beyond first-order Human-Robot interaction and more explicitly model Crowd-Robot Interaction (CRI). We propose to (i) rethink pairwise interactions with a self-attention mechanism, and (ii) jointly model Human-Robot as well as Human-Human interactions in the deep reinforcement learning framework. Our model captures the Human-Human interactions occurring in dense crowds that indirectly affects the robots anticipation capability. Our proposed attentive pooling mechanism learns the collective importance of neighboring humans with respect to their future states. Various experiments demonstrate that our model can anticipate human dynamics and navigate in crowds with time efficiency, outperforming state-of-the-art methods.
We present CoMet, a novel approach for computing a groups cohesion and using that to improve a robots navigation in crowded scenes. Our approach uses a novel cohesion-metric that builds on prior work in social psychology. We compute this metric by ut
ilizing various visual features of pedestrians from an RGB-D camera on-board a robot. Specifically, we detect characteristics corresponding to proximity between people, their relative walking speeds, the group size, and interactions between group members. We use our cohesion-metric to design and improve a navigation scheme that accounts for different levels of group cohesion while a robot moves through a crowd. We evaluate the precision and recall of our cohesion-metric based on perceptual evaluations. We highlight the performance of our social navigation algorithm on a Turtlebot robot and demonstrate its benefits in terms of multiple metrics: freezing rate (57% decrease), deviation (35.7% decrease), and path length of the trajectory(23.2% decrease).
Robot navigation in a safe way for complex and crowded situations is studied in this work. When facing complex environments with both static and dynamic obstacles, in existing works unicycle nonholonomic robots are prone to two extreme behaviors, one
is to fall into dead ends formed by obstacles, and the other is to not complete the navigation task in time due to excessive collision avoidance.As a result, we propose the R-SARL framework, which is based on a deep reinforcement learning algorithm and where we augment the reward function to avoid collisions. In particular, we estimate unsafe interactions between the robot and obstacles in a look-ahead distance and penalize accordingly, so that the robot can avoid collisions in advance and reach its destination safely.Furthermore, we penalize frequent excessive detours to reduce the timeout and thus improve the efficiency of navigation.We test our method in various challenging and complex crowd navigation tasks. The results show that our method improves navigation performance and outperforms state-of-the-art methods.
Recent literature in the robotics community has focused on learning robot behaviors that abstract out lower-level details of robot control. To fully leverage the efficacy of such behaviors, it is necessary to select and sequence them to achieve a giv
en task. In this paper, we present an approach to both learn and sequence robot behaviors, applied to the problem of visual navigation of mobile robots. We construct a layered representation of control policies composed of low- level behaviors and a meta-level policy. The low-level behaviors enable the robot to locomote in a particular environment while avoiding obstacles, and the meta-level policy actively selects the low-level behavior most appropriate for the current situation based purely on visual feedback. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method on three simulated robot navigation tasks: a legged hexapod robot which must successfully traverse varying terrain, a wheeled robot which must navigate a maze-like course while avoiding obstacles, and finally a wheeled robot navigating in the presence of dynamic obstacles. We show that by learning control policies in a layered manner, we gain the ability to successfully traverse new compound environments composed of distinct sub-environments, and outperform both the low-level behaviors in their respective sub-environments, as well as a hand-crafted selection of low-level policies on these compound environments.
