IntentReact: トポロジカルな意図による反応的オブジェクト中心ナビゲーションの誘導
IntentReact: Guiding Reactive Object-Centric Navigation via Topological Intent
オブジェクト目標ナビゲーションにおいて、局所的な観測のみに依存する反応的制御と大域的なトポロジカル計画のギャップを埋めるため、意図（intent）と呼ばれる低次元の方向信号を導入し、学習されたウェイポイント予測を条件付けてナビゲーションを誘導するフレームワークを提案した。

Object-goal visual navigation requires robots to reason over semantic structure and act effectively under partial observability. Recent approaches based on object-level topological maps enable long-horizon navigation without dense geometric reconstruction, but their execution remains limited by the gap between global topological guidance and local perception-driven control. In particular, local decisions are made solely from the current egocentric observation, without access to information beyond the robot's field of view. As a result, the robot may persist along its current heading even when initially oriented away from the goal, moving toward directions that do not decrease the global topological distance. In this work, we propose IntentReact, an intent-conditioned object-centric navigation framework that introduces a compact interface between global topological planning and reactive object-centric control. Our approach encodes global topological guidance as a low-dimensional directional signal, termed intent, which conditions a learned waypoint prediction policy to bias navigation toward topologically consistent progression. This design enables the robot to promptly reorient when local observations are misleading, guiding motion toward directions that decrease global topological distance while preserving the reactivity and robustness of object-centric control. We evaluate the proposed framework through extensive experiments, demonstrating improved navigation success and execution quality compared to prior object-centric navigation methods.
