Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer program products for adaptive, imitation learning and applications to navigational assistance are disclosed. The inventive concepts include receiving a plurality of trajectories, each trajectory describing a path through a dynamic, complex physical environment; receiving a request for navigational assistance through the dynamic, complex physical environment; and in response to receiving the request for navigational assistance: generating a navigational assistance trajectory through the dynamic, complex physical environment, the navigational assistance trajectory being based at least in part on at least one of the plurality of trajectories; generating auditory instructions in accordance with the navigational assistance trajectory; and transmitting the navigational assistance trajectory and the auditory instructions to a mobile device from which the request for navigational assistance was received. A user receiving the navigational assistance trajectory and auditory instructions may navigate through the complex, dynamic physical environment without relying on visual cues.
