Overview
arXiv:2602.09472v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) enable non-experts to specify open-world multi-robot tasks, but the generated plans are often kinematically infeasible and inefficient in long-horizon settings. Formal methods such as Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) offer correctness and optimality guarantees, yet they are typically offline and scale poorly. To bridge this gap, we propose a neuro-symbolic framework that grounds human instructions into hierarchical LTLf specifications (i.e., LTL on finite traces) and solves the resulting Simultaneous Task Allocation and Planning (STAP) problem. Unlike static approaches, our system handles stochastic environmental changes-such as user motion or updated instructions-through a receding horizon planning (RHP) loop with real-time perception, dynamically refining plans over a hierarchical state space. Experiments in simulation and on real robots demonstrate that our approach significantly outperforms baseline methods in success rate and interaction fluency while reducing replanning overhead.
