Dense map that contains the surrounding geometry and vision information of a robot is widely used for path planning, navigation, obstacle avoidance and other applications. Considering the performance of the processing unit mounted on the robot is limited, mapping algorithm has to make compromise by sacrificing speed and precision. It will be more challenging when the dense mapping scene is very large because the memory consumption will be greatly increased and the map is difficult to be extended if beyonding the initial map. To suppress the negative impact from the increased map scale, we proposed a novel block mapping approach to generate the dense map in large scale of scene. In this work, the elevation map is selected as the base dense map. The entire elevation map is segmented into numerous block maps of which size is much smaller than that of the entire map. The present moment of lidar and vision measurements are used to generate the local elevation map. The local elevation map is used to update block maps which are adaptively generated along the motion trajectory. A memory-disk interaction mechanism, which the block maps will be loaded to memory or saved to local disk when needed, is introduced. Our block mapping approach is tested on the KITTI datasets, and the results demonstrate that the mapping approach can stably operate in a large scale of scene with a much smaller consumption of memory. © 2022 IEEE.

Neuropeptides configure the feeding network of Aplysia. For example, egestive activity is promoted by small cardioactive peptide (SCP), and ingestive activity is promoted by a combination of feeding circuit activating peptide (FCAP) and cerebral peptide 2 (CP-2). In addition, SCP and FCAP/CP-2 have a common network effect that does not contribute to motor program specification. They increase the excitability of an interneuron, B63. In this report, we further characterized the effects of peptides on B63. We performed voltage-clamp experiments and used a step protocol to look at steady-state currents. We found that SCP and FCAP/CP-2 both induced an inward current that was virtually absent in low-sodium saline. Previous work has established that B63 is unusual in the feeding circuit in that subthreshold depolarizations are autonomously generated that can trigger motor programs. Here, we show that this autonomous activity is more frequent in the presence of peptides. Previous studies have also shown that activity of the feeding central pattern generator (CPG) can be initiated by neurons that excite B63, e.g., by cerebral buccal interneuron 2 (CBI-2), a projection neuron that triggers biting-like motor programs. Here, we show that the latency of CBI-2-induced activity is decreased by stimulation of the esophageal nerve (EN) (which releases endogenous SCP). These results, taken together with previous results, indicate that peptides that act divergently to configure network activity additionally act convergently to promote motor program induction. We present data that suggest that this arrangement facilitates brief switches between ingestive and egestive motor activity. © 2025 The Authors.

Audio-visual semantic segmentation (AVSS) aims to segment and classify sounding objects in videos with acoustic cues. However, most approaches operate on the close-set assumption and only identify pre-defined categories from training data, lacking the generalization ability to detect novel categories in practical applications. In this paper, we introduce a new task: open-vocabulary audio-visual semantic segmentation, extending AVSS task to open-world scenarios beyond the annotated label space. This is a more challenging task that requires recognizing all categories, even those that have never been seen nor heard during training. Moreover, we propose the first open-vocabulary AVSS framework, OV-AVSS, which mainly consists of two parts: 1) a universal sound source localization module to perform audio-visual fusion and locate all potential sounding objects and 2) an open-vocabulary classification module to predict categories with the help of the prior knowledge from large-scale pre-trained vision-language models. To properly evaluate the open-vocabulary AVSS, we split zero-shot training and testing subsets based on the AVSBench-semantic benchmark, namely AVSBench-OV. Extensive experiments demonstrate the strong segmentation and zero-shot generalization ability of our model on all categories. On the AVSBench-OV dataset, OV-AVSS achieves 55.43% mIoU on base categories and 29.14% mIoU on novel categories, exceeding the state-of-the-art zero-shot method by 41.88%/20.61% and open-vocabulary method by 10.2%/11.6%.

Ease of calibration and high-accuracy task-space state-estimation purely based on onboard sensors is a key requirement for enabling easily deployable cable robots in real-world applications. In this work, we incorporate the onboard camera and kinematic sensors to drive a statistical fusion framework that presents a unified localization and calibration system which requires no initial values for the kinematic parameters. This is achieved by formulating a Monte-Carlo algorithm that initializes a factor-graph representation of the calibration and localization problem. With this, we are able to jointly identify both the kinematic parameters and the visual odometry scale alongside their corresponding uncertainties. We demonstrate the practical applicability of the framework using our state-estimation dataset recorded with the ARAS-CAM suspended cable driven parallel robot, and published as part of this manuscript.

Domestic service robots have the promising potential of bringing significant services to the general population, and more importantly, successful applications of universal domestic service robots can potentially help mitigate critical societal issues such as senior care. In order to do so, domestic service robots need to integrate seamlessly into home environments. However, home environments are dynamic, complex and filled with personal items. Therefore, ambiguity can quickly arise for robots operating in such rich environments. In this paper, we propose an object ambiguity determination system that can determine the level of ambiguity in robot object selection tasks with fuzzy logic data integration. Additionally, we propose a functional human attention assessment system with fuzzy logic that enables the robot to determine user attention before committing to general disambiguation processes. Our preliminary results show that the proposed fuzzy logic inference systems can reliably estimate the robot object selection task ambiguity from object confidence level and the number of potential target objects that satisfy the user's command. Furthermore, fuzzy inference is applied to decide human eye gaze direction robustly. These subsystems can be utilized in the context of human-robot interaction to guide the robot when to seek feedback from a human partner in order to disambiguate reference in domestic service tasks. The source code of all proposed systems is available publicly on GitHub. 1

As the basis of multi-sensor fusion, accurate extrinsic calibration among multi-sensors is vital for hetero-geneous information fusion. However, most existing methods only focus on the calibration between two specific heteroge-neous sensors, such as camera-LiDAR, LiDAR-thermal, and etc. which may cause inevitable accumulation when applied to a multi-sensor system. To address this problem, a novel calibration target and a high-accuracy method are proposed to simultaneously calibrate the intrinsic and extrinsic of a 3D LiDAR, a thermal camera and a visible camera without any user intervention. The proposed method only relies on one calibration board, to calibrate all the intrinsic and extrinsic parameters in one-step, without any strict pose requirement or long-time optimization. Furthermore, 2D-3D corresponding features can be extracted with higher precision by considering sensor model, comparing to the common feature extraction methods. Experiments with Velodyne VLP-16 LiDAR, ZED camera and D843NT thermal camera demonstrate that the proposed method can complete calibration among three of them automatically. Finally, this paper also presents a target-based method of uniformly expressing the calibration errors among multi-sensor system, with a competitive performance against most state-of-the-art methods. © 2022 IEEE.

Automatic target recognition (ATR) plays a critical role in tasks such as navigation and surveillance, where safety and accuracy are paramount. In extreme use cases, such as military applications, these factors are often challenged due to the presence of unknown terrains, environmental conditions, and novel object categories. Current object detectors, including open-world detectors, lack the ability to confidently recognize novel objects or operate in unknown environments, as they have not been exposed to these new conditions. However, Large vision-Language Models (LVLMs) exhibit emergent properties that enable them to recognize objects in varying conditions in a zero-shot manner. Despite this, LVLMs struggle to localize objects effectively within a scene. To address these limitations, we propose a novel pipeline that combines the detection capabilities of open-world detectors with the recognition confidence of LVLMs, creating a robust system for zero-shot ATR of novel classes and unknown domains. In this study, we compare the performance of various LVLMs for recognizing military vehicles, which are often underrepresented in training datasets. Additionally, we examine the impact of factors such as distance range, modality, and prompting methods on the recognition performance, providing insights into the development of more reliable ATR systems for novel conditions and classes. © 2025, CC BY.

Task-Oriented Grasp Prediction with Visual-Language Inputs

Task-Oriented Grasp Prediction with Visual-Language Inputs

To perform household tasks, assistive robots receive commands in the form of user language instructions for tool manipulation. The initial stage involves selecting the intended tool (i.e., object grounding) and grasping it in a task-oriented manner (i.e., task grounding). Nevertheless, prior researches on visual-language grasping (VLG) focus on object grounding, while disregarding the fine-grained impact of tasks on object grasping. Task-incompatible grasping of a tool will inevitably limit the success of subsequent manipulation steps. Motivated by this problem, this paper proposes GraspCLIP, which addresses the challenge of task grounding in addition to object grounding to enable task-oriented grasp prediction with visual-language inputs. Evaluation on a custom dataset demonstrates that GraspCLIP achieves superior performance over established baselines with object grounding only. The effectiveness of the proposed method is further validated on an assistive robotic arm for grasping previously unseen kitchen tools given the task specification.

Control barrier functions (CBFs) are widely used in safety-critical controllers. However, constructing a valid CBF is challenging, especially under nonlinear or non-convex constraints and for high relative degree systems. Meanwhile, finding a conservative CBF that only recovers a portion of the true safe set is usually possible. In this work, starting from a "conservative" handcrafted CBF (HCBF), we develop a method to find a CBF that recovers a reasonably larger portion of the safe set. Since the learned CBF controller is not guaranteed to be safe during training iterations, we use a model predictive controller (MPC) to ensure safety during training. Using the collected trajectory data containing safe and unsafe interactions, we train a neural network to estimate the difference between the HCBF and a CBF that recovers a closer solution to the true safe set. With our proposed approach, we can generate safe controllers that are less conservative and computationally more efficient. We validate our approach on two systems: a second-order integrator and a ball-on-beam.

The investigation and development of space-based food production systems are essential to improve the reliability and availability of fresh sustenance for astronauts. With their compact size and low-cost production, CubeSats can provide a unique platform for plant-based in-space experiments. Additionally, the combination of CubeSats and computer vision can allow for monitoring the health of plants during their growth cycles. This paper investigates the electronics and data handling of a crop growth module, otherwise referred to as an environmental monitoring and control subsystem (EMCS), as well as the integration of computer vision techniques for plant growth and development. Using the Otsu thresholding and holistically-nested edge detection algorithms, image segmentation and edge detection were performed, respectively. A support vector machine (SVM) was also employed to classify foliage and provide feedback on the plant’s health. The results from the system show that the computer vision approach can accurately predict the health of the plants based on color and texture. This study builds a foundation for future plant health monitoring research in deep space environments.
