| 金声玉亮2.0 | A widely accepted explanation for robots planning overcautious or overaggressive trajectories alongside humans is that when the crowd density exceeds a threshold such that all feasible trajectories are considered unsafe, it leads to the freezing robot problem. However, even with low crowd density, the robot's navigation performance should still drop drastically when in close proximity to humans. In this work, we argue that a broader cause of suboptimal navigation performance near humans is due to the robot's misjudgment of the human's willingness (flexibility) to share space with others, particularly when the robot assumes the human's flexibility holds constant during interaction, a phenomenon of what we call human-robot pacing mismatch. We show that a necessary condition for solving pacing mismatch is to model the evolution of both the robot and the human's flexibility during decision making, a strategy called distribution space modeling. We demonstrate the advantage of distribution space coupling through an anecdotal case study and discuss the future directions of solving human-robot pacing mismatch. | A widely accepted explanation for robots planning overcautious or overaggressive trajectories alongside humans is that the crowd density exceeds a threshold such that all feasible trajectories are considered unsafe -- the freezing robot problem.
