Real world robot tasks are so complex that it is hard to hand-tune all of the
domain knowledge, especially to model the dynamics of the environment. In this
paper we present techniques for learning from real-world
robot execution to improve planning and execution performance. We present our
work learning from execution to improve a task planner's performance.
Our system collects execution traces from the robot, and automatically extracts
relevant information to improve the efficiency of generated plans. We
introduce the concept of
