COLSON: Controllable Learning-Based Social Navigation via Diffusion-Based Reinforcement Learning
Mobile robot navigation in dynamic environments with pedestrian traffic is a key challenge in the development of autonomous mobile service robots. Recently, deep reinforcement learning-based methods have been actively studied and have outperformed traditional rule-based approaches owing to their optimization capabilities. Among these, methods that assume a continuous action space typically rely on a Gaussian distribution assumption, which limits the flexibility of generated actions. Meanwhile, the application of diffusion models to reinforcement learning has advanced, allowing for more flexible action distributions compared with Gaussian distribution-based approaches. In this study, we applied a diffusion-based reinforcement learning approach to social navigation and validated its effectiveness. Furthermore, by leveraging the characteristics of diffusion models, we propose an extension that enables post-training action smoothing and adaptation to static obstacle scenarios not considered during the training steps.
