Socially Aware Mobile Robot Navigation: A Deep Reinforcement Learning-Based Group-Aware Model
摘要
In this paper, we introduce an efficient group-aware social robot navigation model, GNav. The GNav model is specifically designed to explicitly model group interactions utilizing a spatial-temporal interaction graph. This design choice significantly enhances the model’s ability to navigate environments that contain a mixture of groups and individual pedestrians. Evaluations conducted in simulated settings indicate that our model outperforms the performance of current state-of-the-art approaches in terms of the success rate and the group intersection rate, highlighting its effectiveness and adaptability in diverse social navigation contexts.
