Abstract: Robots need to compute high-quality solutions or plans quickly to provide meaningful assistance in solving household and industrial tasks. However, computing high-quality, long-horizon plans are rather challenging. In my research, I attempt to harness the power of deep learning, reinforcement learning, and Monte Carlo tree search to tackle long-horizon robot planning tasks. This presentation will discuss our proposed solutions, employing the tools mentioned earlier that effectively solve two long-horizon robot manipulation problems: de-clutter and object retrieval.
