Taxonomy-Agnostic Neurosymbolic Grounding of Robot Kinematics

Taxonomy-Agnostic Neurosymbolic Grounding of Robot Kinematics

Summary

This paper introduces URDF2Ontology, an automated neurosymbolic framework that transforms raw Unified Robot Description Format (URDF) files into populated OWL ontologies. The system leverages a Large Language Model for semantic reasoning and employs a morphology-aware dual-track architecture to handle complex kinematic structures. Empirical evaluations on a diverse fleet of robots demonstrate effective schema alignment and structural extraction, significantly reducing the need for manual domain authoring.

Editorial context

The authors propose URDF2Ontology, a framework that uses an LLM and graph-purging to convert standard URDF files into grounded OWL ontologies, claiming reduced manual overhead in empirical evaluations across heterogeneous robots.

Automatically extracted; no manual editorial approval recorded.

lic guardrails, the framework extracts functional sub-graphs and asserts populated ontologies aligned with arbitrary user-provided taxonomies. Empirical evaluation across a diverse fleet of heterogeneous robots demonstrates strong schema alignment, valid structural extraction, and a significant reduction in manual domain authoring overhead.
