Classical autonomous navigation systems can control robots in a
collision-free manner, oftentimes with verifiable safety and explainability.
When facing new environments, however, fine-tuning of the system parameters
by an expert is typically required before the system can navigate as
expected. To alleviate this requirement, the recently-proposed Adaptive
Planner Parameter Learning paradigm allows robots to learn how to
dynamically adjust planner parameters using a teleoperated demonstration or
corrective interventions from non-expert users. However, these
interaction modalities require users to take full control of the
moving robot, which requires the users to be familiar with robot
teleoperation. As an alternative, we introduce APPLE, Adaptive
Planner Parameter Learning from Evaluative Feedback (real-time,
scalar-valued assessments of behavior), which represents a less demanding
modality of interaction. Simulated and physical experiments show APPLE can
achieve better performance compared to the planner with static default
parameters and even yield improvement over learned parameters from richer
interaction modalities.
