This T-RO paper presenting at ‪#ICRA2025 introduces a method integrating parametric curves into Motion Manifold Primitives. This approach ensures isometric latent spaces for better performance & online adaptation.
ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/106...

#Robotics #MotionPlanning #AI #IEEEras
There are 15 demonstration trajectories (red, green, and blue trajectories) that travel from the start to the goal, avoiding the obstacle. Middle and Right: MMP++ and IMMP++ learn 2-D manifolds in the curve parameter space and produce 2-D latent coordinate spaces. Latent values of the demonstration trajectories are visualized in the latent coordinate spaces, marked as ×. GMMs of three components are fitted in the latent spaces, and the sampled points are visualized as stars ∗. The corresponding generated trajectories are also visualized.
