Design and Evaluation of LLM Chaining-Based Task Planning for General Purpose Service Robots

The paper introduces an LLM chaining architecture for General Purpose Service Robots that splits instruction classification and action generation into two stages, cutting prompt length by about 45% and boosting planning consistency. Evaluation on 100 synthetic GPSR commands across three language models shows consistent improvements over single-prompt methods, with up to +37 percentage points gain on local models. Real‑robot trials on the Toyota HSR confirm that while planning success improves, execution-layer failures remain the main obstacle to full task completion.

Efficient Reasoning on the Edge

arXiv:2603. 16867v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) with chain-of-thought reasoning achieve state-of-the-art performance across complex problem-solving tasks, but their verbose reasoning traces and large context requirements make them impractical for edge deployment.

ProcAgent: An Agentic Framework for Procedural Task Guidance on Edge with Human-in-the-Loop

arXiv:2607. 24770v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Procedural tasks such as furniture assembly and home repair impose substantial cognitive demands because users must interpret instructions, track task progress, reason about spatial state, and recover from errors while performing physical actions.

Synthetic Interaction Data for Scalable Personalization in Large Language Models

arXiv:2602. 12394v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Personalized prompting offers large opportunities for deploying large language models (LLMs) to diverse users, yet existing prompt optimization methods primarily focus on task-level optimization while largely overlooking user-specific preferences and latent constraints of individual users.
