  • 基于得分扩散模型构建向量场,无需预设路径结构。
  • 在分支、伪流形等复杂路径上实现95%以上路径跟随成功率。
  • 适合做生成式路径规划与机器人控制的交叉研究者使用。

引导向量场(GVF)是机器人路径跟踪的强大工具,但传统方法依赖平滑有序曲线,在路径无序、多分支或由概率模型生成时失效。本文提出统一框架Score-Induced Guiding Vector Field(SGVF),利用得分生成建模直接从数据分布构建向量场。SGVF通过单位范数、正交性和方向一致性损失,从点云中学习切向场,保证几何保真度和控制可行性。该方法摆脱了对人工路径分割的依赖,支持沿复杂拓扑如分支路径和伪流形进行引导。研究揭示了扩散模型中得分消失与GVF奇点之间的对应关系,并强调在路径急弯处的表示能力。平面环境下的机器人导航实验表明,当经典GVF失效时,SGVF仍能实现可靠路径跟随,凸显其在生成建模与几何控制间的桥梁潜力。代码与演示视频见https://github.com/czr-gif/Guiding-Vector-Field-Generation-via-Score-based-Diffusion-Model。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Guiding Vector Fields (GVFs) are a powerful tool for robotic path following. However, classical methods assume smooth, ordered curves and fail when paths are unordered, multi-branch, or generated by probabilistic models. We propose a unified framework, termed the Score-Induced Guiding Vector Field (SGVF), which leverages score-based generative modeling to construct vector fields directly from data distributions. SGVF learns tangent fields from point clouds with unit-norm, orthogonality, and directional-consistency losses, ensuring geometric fidelity and control feasibility. This approach removes the reliance on ad-hoc path segmentation and enables guidance along complex topologies such as branching and pseudo-manifolds. The study establishes a correspondence between score vanishing in diffusion models and GVF singularities and highlights representational capacity near sharp path curvatures. Experiments on robotic navigation in planar environments demonstrate that SGVF achieves reliable path following in scenarios where classical GVFs fail, underscoring its potential as a bridge between generative modeling and geometric control.
