Can VLMs predict how each camera move changes the view, and plan many such moves ahead? We call this capability view planning, requiring (1)understanding how a single action transforms the view, and (2)composing many such transformations across multi-turn plans to identify a target view. We probe both abilities in our…

'Alois Christian Knoll' 'Shu Li'] Active mapping is an important technique for mobile robots to autonomously explore and recognize indoor environments. View planning, as the core of active mapping, determines the quality of the map and the efficiency of exploration. However, most current view-planning methods focus on…

— Robotic planning systems model spatial relations in detail as these are needed for manipulation tasks. In contrast to this, other physical attributes of objects and the effect of devices are usually oversimplified and expressed by abstract compound attributes. This limits the ability of planners to find alternative…

'Marco F. Huber' 'Marina Indri'] Manual inspection of workpieces in highly flexible production facilities with small lot sizes is costly and less reliable compared to automated inspection systems. Reinforcement Learning (RL) offers promising, intelligent solutions for robotic inspection and manufacturing tasks. This…

—UAV-based intelligent data acquisition for 3D reconstruction and monitoring of infrastructure has experienced an increasing surge of interest due to recent advancements in image processing and deep learning-based techniques. View planning is an essential part of this task that dictates the information capture strategy…

Object-centric view planning is a core component of active geometric 3D reconstruction in robotics, yet existing evaluations often conflate object complexity, planning difficulty, budget assumptions, and physical reachability constraints. As a result, conclusions drawn from idealized view-planning evaluations may not…

'Qiang Zhang' 'Yifeng Zeng'] View planning (VP) is a technique that guides the adjustment of the sensor’s postures in multi-view perception tasks. It converts the perception process into active perception, which improves the intelligence and reduces the resource consumption of the robot. We propose a generic VP system…

'Kevin W. Franke' 'John D. Hedengren'] This study presents a novel multi-scale view-planning algorithm for automated targeted inspection using unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). In industrial inspection, it is important to collect the most relevant data to keep processing demands, both human and computational, to a…

'Brian Davidson' 'David Hawkes' 'Danail Stoyanov' 'Matthew J. Clarkson'] Purpose Minimally invasive surgery offers advantages over open surgery due to a shorter recovery time, less pain and trauma for the patient. However, inherent challenges such as lack of tactile feedback and difficulty in controlling bleeding lower…

The PlanningVis system is developed to support multi-level exploration and comparison of different production plans, which consists of four parts: a control panel (Fig. 1a) to present the configuration data and promote interactively changing the configuration, a plan overview (Fig. 1b) to exhibit the optimization…

When performing a long chain of actions in rapid sequence, future movements need to be planned concurrently with ongoing action. However, how far ahead we plan, and whether this ability improves with practice, is currently unknown. Here we designed an experiment in which healthy volunteers were asked to produce 14-item…

To characterize the process of visual search, reaction time is measured relative to stimulus onset, when the whole search field is presented in view simultaneously. Salient objects are found faster, suggesting that they are detected using peripheral vision (rather than each object being fixated in turn). This work…

Elucidating the biosynthetic pathways of natural products has been a major focus of biochemistry and pharmacy. However, predicting the whole pathways from target molecules to metabolic building blocks remains a challenge. Here we propose READRetro as a practical bio-retrosynthesis tool for planning the biosynthetic…

Goal-oriented navigation is widely understood to depend upon internal maps. Although this may be the case in many settings, humans tend to rely on vision in complex, unfamiliar environments. To study the nature of gaze during visually-guided navigation, we tasked humans to navigate to transiently visible goals in…

We humans are capable of solving challenging planning problems, but the range of adaptive strategies that we use to address them are not yet fully characterized. Here, we designed a series of problem-solving tasks that require planning at different depths. After systematically comparing the performance of participants…

Effective visualization of complex synthesis routes is critical for computeraided synthesis planning (CASP), yet current solutions are limited in scope, integration flexibility, and chemical intuition. We introduce RouteWise, a versatile, containerized web application designed to address these unmet needs. Its modular…

Advances in computer-assisted synthesis planning (CASP) are revolutionising how new functional molecules in many chemistry-using industries are being developed. CASP tools allow to assemble and analyse prior knowledge of a specified chemical system (a molecule, a reaction, a synthesis route), to generate hypotheses on…
