PlanSys2 Messages

Representing PDDL Expressions as Trees

PDDL expressions are conveniently represented as trees. To see this, consider the following PDDL expression.

(and (robot_at r2d2 millennium_falcon)(not (robot_at r2d2 death_star)))

The root node of the tree corresponds to the outer parentheses encompassing the “and” statement. The “and” statement then has two children. The first child corresponds to the predicate (robot_at r2d2 millennium_falcon) and the second child corresponds to the “not” expression (not (robot_at r2d2 death_star)). Similarly, the “not” expression has one child corresponding to the predicate (robot_at r2d2 death_star).

A tree node is often implemented as a simple class object of the form

class Node {
  public String name;
  public Node[] children;
}

Thus, the node contains the data relevant to the node as well as the links to its children. A tree is then stored as a list of nodes.

Representing PDDL Expressions with ROS Messages

PlanSys2 requires that the PDDL construct trees be passed back and forth between the various nodes of the system. To define a PDDL tree in ROS, we use two custom messages, plansys2_msgs/Tree and plansys2_msgs/Node. The contents of plansys2_msgs/Tree is simply an array of type plansys2_msgs/Node.

plansys2_msgs/Node[] nodes

The contents of plansys2_msgs/Node contains the data relevant to the node as well as links to its children.

uint8 node_type
uint8 expression_type
uint8 modifier_type

uint32 node_id
uint32[] children

string name
plansys2_msgs/Param[] parameters
float64 value
bool negate

The node_type defines the type of PDDL construct that the node represents. The following values are currently supported by PlanSys2.

uint8 AND = 1
uint8 OR = 2
uint8 NOT = 3
uint8 ACTION = 4
uint8 PREDICATE = 5
uint8 FUNCTION = 6
uint8 EXPRESSION = 7
uint8 FUNCTION_MODIFIER = 8
uint8 NUMBER = 9

When the node_type is EXPRESSION, the expr_type field is used to define the type of expression represented. The following expressions types are currently supported by PlanSys2.

uint8 COMP_GE = 10
uint8 COMP_GT = 11
uint8 COMP_LE = 12
uint8 COMP_LT = 13
uint8 ARITH_MULT = 14
uint8 ARITH_DIV = 15
uint8 ARITH_ADD = 16
uint8 ARITH_SUB = 17

When the node_type is FUNCTION_MODIFIER the modifier_type field is used to define the type of function modifier represented. The following function modifier types are currently supported by PlanSys2.

uint8 ASSIGN = 18
uint8 INCREASE = 19
uint8 DECREASE = 20
uint8 SCALE_UP = 21
uint8 SCALE_DOWN = 22

The node_id corresponds to the node’s location in the nodes list and takes on a value in the range [0, len(nodes)-1].

The children list specifies the locations, or node id’s, of the node’s children.

The name string and parameters list are used by predicate and function nodes, which are defined by a name and a list of parameters.

The value field is used by PDDL functions and stores a numeric value.

Finally, the negate field tracks whether the inverse truth value should be used. For example, if a NOT node is the parent of a PREDICATE node, then the PREDICATE node will have a negate value opposite that of the NOT node’s value.
