Generating Executable Action Plans with Environmentally-Aware Language Models
Large Language Models (LLMs) trained using massive text datasets have
recently shown promise in generating action plans for robotic agents from high
level text queries. However, these models typically do not consider the robot's
environment, resulting in generated plans that may not actually be executable,
due to ambiguities in the planned actions or environmental constraints. In this
paper, we propose an approach to generate environmentally-aware action plans
that agents are better able to execute. Our approach involves integrating
environmental objects and object relations as additional inputs into LLM action
plan generation to provide the system with an awareness of its surroundings,
resulting in plans where each generated action is mapped to objects present in
the scene. We also design a novel scoring function that, along with generating
the action steps and associating them with objects, helps the system
disambiguate among object instances and take into account their states. We
evaluated our approach using the VirtualHome simulator and the ActivityPrograms
knowledge base and found that action plans generated from our system had a 310%
improvement in executability and a 147% improvement in correctness over prior
work. The complete code and a demo of our method is publicly available at

Abstracts on Radio Direction Finding (1899 - 1995)
The files on this record represent the various databases that originally composed the CD-ROM issue of "Abstracts on Radio Direction Finding" database, which is now part of the Dudley Knox Library's Abstracts and Selected Full Text Documents on Radio Direction Finding (1899 - 1995) Collection. (See Calhoun record https://calhoun.nps.edu/handle/10945/57364 for further information on this collection and the bibliography).
Due to issues of technological obsolescence preventing current and future audiences from accessing the bibliography, DKL exported and converted into the three files on this record the various databases contained in the CD-ROM.
