Learning Reusable Hybrid Motion Priors for Humanoid Locomotion from Motion Imitation

arXiv:2607. 24083v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning can produce robust humanoid controllers, but each new task is typically trained as a separate policy with its own reward design and training process.

TRACE: Learned Proprioceptive Odometry for Legged Robots under Unreliable Contact Conditions

In this paper, we present TRACE (Tokenized Robust Attention for Contact-Aware Estimation), an end-to-end learned proprioceptive odometry estimator for legged robots under unreliable contact conditions. The proposed estimator directly predicts relative displacement, relative rotation, and body-frame velocity from a recent history of onboard inertial and joint measurements.
