USING OBJECT OBSERVATIONS OF MOBILE ROBOTS TO GENERATE A SPATIO-TEMPORAL OBJECT INVENTORY, AND USING THE INVENTORY TO DETERMINE MONITORING PARAMETERS FOR THE MOBILE ROBOTS

Methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for generating a spatio-temporal object inventory based on object observations from mobile robots and determining, based on the spatio-temporal object inventory, monitoring parameters for the mobile robots for one or more future time periods. Some implementations relate to using the spatio-temporal object inventory to determine a quantity of movements of objects that occur in one or more areas of the environment when one or more particular criteria are satisfied—and using that determination to determine monitoring parameters that can be utilized to provide commands to one or more of the mobile robots that influence one or more aspects of movements of the mobile robots at future time periods when the one or more particular criteria are also satisfied.
