D-LGP: Dynamic Logic-Geometric Program for Combined Task and Motion Planning

Many real-world sequential manipulation tasks involve a combination of discrete symbolic search and continuous motion planning, collectively known as combined task and motion planning (TAMP). However, prevailing methods often struggle with the computational burden and intricate combinatorial challenges stemming from the multitude of action skeletons. To address this, we propose Dynamic Logic-Geometric Program (D-LGP), a novel approach integrating Dynamic Tree Search and global optimization for efficient hybrid planning. Through empirical evaluation on three benchmarks, we demonstrate the efficacy of our approach, showcasing superior performance in comparison to state-of-the-art techniques. We validate our approach through simulation and demonstrate its capability for online replanning under uncertainty and external disturbances in the real world.
