EmoBipedNav: Emotion-aware Social Navigation for Bipedal Robots with Deep Reinforcement Learning
- 用激光雷达图序列提取情绪不适区与社交动态特征
- 结合低阶模型与全阶动力学,实现稳定避障与轨迹规划
- 适合研究人机交互、智能机器人导航的开发者
本研究提出一种基于深度强化学习的拟人化双足机器人情绪感知导航框架——EmoBipedNav。针对双足机器人在动态社交环境中受运动约束与人际互动影响导致的导航难题,设计了两阶段流程:通过序列激光雷达网格图(LGMs)表征社交场景,提取碰撞区域、情绪相关不适区、社交交互及环境时空演化等潜在特征;这些特征直接映射至低阶模型(ROM)的动作空间,同时在训练中引入全阶动力学与运动控制约束,有效缓解跟踪误差并提升轨迹规划稳定性。大量实验表明,该方法在性能上超越基于模型的规划器与现有DRL基线。硬件视频与开源代码已公开于 https://gatech-lidar.github.io/emobipednav.github.io/。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
This study presents an emotion-aware navigation framework -- EmoBipedNav -- using deep reinforcement learning (DRL) for bipedal robots walking in socially interactive environments. The inherent locomotion constraints of bipedal robots challenge their safe maneuvering capabilities in dynamic environments. When combined with the intricacies of social environments, including pedestrian interactions and social cues, such as emotions, these challenges become even more pronounced. To address these coupled problems, we propose a two-stage pipeline that considers both bipedal locomotion constraints and complex social environments. Specifically, social navigation scenarios are represented using sequential LiDAR grid maps (LGMs), from which we extract latent features, including collision regions, emotion-related discomfort zones, social interactions, and the spatio-temporal dynamics of evolving environments. The extracted features are directly mapped to the actions of reduced-order models (ROMs) through a DRL architecture. Furthermore, the proposed framework incorporates full-order dynamics and locomotion constraints during training, effectively accounting for tracking errors and restrictions of the locomotion controller while planning the trajectory with ROMs. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that our approach exceeds both model-based planners and DRL-based baselines. The hardware videos and open-source code are available at https://gatech-lidar.github.io/emobipednav.github.io/.
