LEAN Energy-Aware Navigation Planner Paper and Code Released

1 reports · 1 sources

The author posted LEAN on Reddit r/robotics, a reinforcement learning-based local energy-aware navigation planner. The code is open-sourced on GitHub, and the paper was published in IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters. The author states that the method does not use proximity to the goal as a reward, but instead lets the agent learn from failure trajectories and provides an explicit energy signal. The video included by the author shows the model's inference performance in real environments, compared against an ablation version without energy awareness and a classical NMPC planner. All of the above results are the author's claims.
