Sequence-Agnostic Multi-Object Navigation

Understand

The Multi-Object Navigation (MultiON) task requires a robot to localize an instance (each) of multiple object classes.

• It is a fundamental task for an assistive robot in a home or a factory.
• Existing methods for MultiON have viewed this as a direct extension of Object Navigation (ON), the task of localising an instance of one object class, and are pre-sequenced, i.e., the sequence in which the object classes are to be explored is provided in advance.
• This is a strong limitation in practical applications characterized by dynamic changes.
