在部分可观测环境下,可靠的轨迹规划不仅依赖可行的几何路径,还取决于执行过程中能否获得有效观测。现有方法通常固定环境,通过信念空间规划或主动定位调整机器人,常导致不确定性传播代价高,在观测贫乏区域表现脆弱。本文提出任务感知环境增强这一开放问题:给定已建地图、规划的任务轨迹和少量视觉标志点预算,应如何增补环境以确保轨迹在不确定下可靠执行?核心观察是:有效的标记布局由其在任务路径上的定位支持能力决定——少量适时观测即可抑制状态估计误差累积,避免控制失效。基于此,提出SCoDA(Shielded Conditional Diffusion for Environment Augmentation),从数据中学习条件分布,以环境、计划轨迹、扰动上下文和期望执行性能为条件,生成高性能标志点布局。其受保护采样器推断应在计划执行路径的何处进行姿态修正,并引导分布向任务相关、有限预算的增补方案收敛。在多个仿真基准和硬件部署中,SCoDA显著提升轨迹执行可靠性与完成效率,优于强基线。代码、模型与数据集见:https://scoda-diffusion.github.io/

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Reliable trajectory planning under partial observability depends not only on computing a feasible geometric path, but also on whether the robot receives informative observations while executing that trajectory. Existing approaches usually keep the environment fixed and adapt the robot through belief-space planning, active localization, or added sensing, often incurring costly uncertainty propagation and brittle behavior in observation-poor regions. We flip this perspective and address the largely open problem of \emph{task-aware environment augmentation}: given a mapped environment, a planned task trajectory, and a small budget of visual fiducial markers, where should the environment be augmented so that the planned trajectory can be executed reliably under uncertainty? Our key observation is that useful marker layouts are defined by the localization support they provide along the task trajectory: a small number of well-timed observations can be sufficient to prevent uncertainty from accumulating in regions where state-estimation error would otherwise compromise control. Building on this observation, we present \tbp{SCoDA}, $\textbf{S}$hielded $\textbf{Co}$nditional $\textbf{D}$iffusion for Environment $\textbf{A}$ugmentation. \tbp{SCoDA} learns a conditional distribution over high-performing fiducial layouts from data, using the environment, planned trajectory, disturbance context, and desired execution profile as conditioning. Its shielded sampler reasons over where along the planned execution pose corrections should occur, and steers this distribution toward task-relevant, finite-budget augmentations. Across simulated benchmarks and hardware deployments, we show that \tbp{SCoDA} improves trajectory execution reliability and completion time over strong baselines.
