Randomization in Robot Tasks

Abstract
This article explores the role of randomization in the solution of robot manipulation tasks. Randomization refers to the ran dom selection and execution of an action from a collection of possible actions. The intention is that this collection contains some actions that are useful for making progress toward ac complishing a task, but that the precise identity of these useful actions is unknown. Randomization offers one approach for ensuring progress in a probabilistic sense.
