Researchers have developed an embodied active learning approach to adapt object detection models in unknown environments under strict navigation and annotation constraints. This method uses spatial consistency to identify informative robot trajectories and image samples, targeting the detector's failure cases. Experiments conducted in the AI2-THOR simulator and with a real-world Boston Dynamics Spot robot using YOLOv5 demonstrated that this spatial inconsistency-guided selection leads to the highest detection accuracy within the given budget.
