Abstract
This paper develops a robust vision-based mobile manipulation system for wheeled mobile robots (WMRs). In particular, this paper addresses the retention of visual features in the field of view of the camera, which is an important robustness issue in visual servoing. First, the classical approach of image-based visual servoing (IBVS) for fixed-base manipulators is extended to WMRs and a control law with Lyapunov stability is determined. Second, in order to guarantee visibility of visual features, an innovative controller with machine learning using Q-learning is proposed, which can learn its behavior policy and autonomously improve its performance. Third, a hybrid controller for robust mobile manipulation is developed to integrate the IBVS controller and the Q-learning controller through a rule-based arbitrator. This is thought to be the first paper that integrates reinforcement learning or Q-learning with visual servoing to achieve robust operation. Experiments are carried out to validate the approaches developed in this paper. The experimental results show that the new hybrid controller developed here possesses the capabilities of self-learning and fast response, and provides a balanced performance with respect to robustness and accuracy.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
