Risk-Aware Reinforcement Learning for Mobile Manipulation

Description

For robots to successfully transition from lab settings to everyday environments, they must begin to reason about the risks associated with their actions and make informed, risk-aware decisions. This is particularly true for robots performing mobile manipulation tasks, which involve both interacting with and navigating within dynamic, unstructured spaces. However, existing whole-body controllers for mobile manipulators typically lack explicit mechanisms for risk-sensitive decision-making under u
