Towards Adaptive Planning of Assistive-care Robot Tasks

Robotics 2022-09-29 v1

Abstract

This 'research preview' paper introduces an adaptive path planning framework for robotic mission execution in assistive-care applications. The framework provides a graph-based environment modelling approach, with dynamic path finding performed using Dijkstra's algorithm. A predictive module that uses probabilistic model checking is applied to estimate the human's movement through the environment, allowing run-time re-planning of the robot's path. We illustrate the use of the framework for a simulated assistive-care case study in which a mobile robot navigates through the environment and monitors an end user with mild physical or cognitive impairments.
