MoMaStage: Skill-State Graph Guided Planning and Closed-Loop Execution for Long-Horizon Indoor Mobile Manipulation
Not on the map. Why?
Abstract (arXiv)
Long-horizon indoor mobile manipulation (MoMa) requires robots to execute extended navigation-manipulation sequences whose feasibility depends on state changes induced by preceding skills. Vision-language models (VLMs) can decompose instructions into plausible skill sequences, but they do not reliably track such cumulative embodiment constraints or revise a plan when execution deviates from expectation. We present MoMaStage, a map-light framework for state-consistent planning and closed-loop execution in long-horizon indoor MoMa. MoMaStage couples a frozen VLM with robot execution through three mechanisms: (i) a hierarchical library of grounded, executable skills and a topology-only projection of a Skill-State Graph (SSG) that constrains the VLM's planning space; (ii) an SSG verifier that propagates scene-region and gripper-occupancy state to reject infeasible plans before execution; and (iii) an event-driven monitor that triggers graph-grounded repair only when an observed outcome invalidates the remaining plan. The SSG captures the compact embodiment state needed for skill sequencing without requiring a dense scene map, while geometric and contact-level conditions remain within the underlying controllers. Experiments in physics-rich simulation and on a real mobile manipulator show that MoMaStage improves planning validity and long-horizon execution survival over the evaluated baselines, while reducing latency and model token consumption.
