Integrating Deep RL and Bayesian Inference for ObjectNav in Mobile Robotics

ArXi:2603.25366v1 Announce Type: cross Autonomous object search is challenging for mobile robots operating in indoor environments due to partial observability, perceptual uncertainty, and the need to trade off exploration and navigation efficiency. Classical probabilistic approaches explicitly represent uncertainty but typically rely on handcrafted action-selection heuristics, while deep reinforcement learning enables adaptive policies but often suffers from slow convergence and limited interpretability.
