自己遮蔽を伴う密集環境下でのロバストな物体回収のための計画条件付き模倣学習

原文アブストラクト

Retrieving objects from dense clutter requires rearrangement during which the manipulator can occlude objects while moving them. Repeated arm withdrawals to restore visibility interrupt execution. We introduce TRACE, a plan-conditioned imitation framework for retrieval under self-occlusion. A single unoccluded observation initializes a digital twin, where a privileged teacher generates a fixed nominal rollout. A recurrent student combines local rollout context, partial object observations, and proprioception to select actions that can correct deviations from the prediction. Behavior cloning initializes the student; DAgger refines it with teacher labels on student-visited states. The rollout remains fixed throughout execution, so the deployed student needs neither online teacher queries nor additional simulator rollouts during pushing. On 511 simulation test scenes, TRACE achieves 90.7% success versus 43.4% for nominal replay and 96.7% for the privileged closed-loop teacher. At a matched 26,373-label budget, student-state supervision achieves 87.8% versus 66.7% for expert-only cloning, demonstrating gains beyond additional labels. On a UR5e, TRACE achieves 90.0% success versus 95.0% for the closed-loop teacher, while reducing total execution time from 192.7 s to 67.3 s. It avoids the teacher's 16.8 sensing-related arm retractions per trial during pushing, retaining a final withdrawal for graspability evaluation.
