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.

arXiv:2606. 08253v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Enabling humanoid robots to operate in complex, dynamic environments remains a critical challenge, fundamentally limited by the ability to navigate robustly, safely, and accurately.
arXiv:2608. 07328v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hardware failures require legged robots to rapidly reorganize coordination and gait timing to maintain stability and mobility.
arXiv:2606. 12406v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Contact-rich manipulation requires force sensitivity, but many robot arms lack dedicated force sensors due to their high cost.
arXiv:2603. 03751v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Cooperative object transport in unstructured environments remains challenging for assistive humanoids because strong, time-varying interaction forces can make tracking-centric whole-body control unreliable, especially in close-contact support tasks.
arXiv:2510. 18348v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: State-of-the-art perceptive Reinforcement Learning controllers for legged robots typically either (i) impose oscillator-or IK-based gait priors that constrain the action space, bias policy optimization, and limit adaptability across robot morphologies, or (ii) operate "blind," making them unable to anticipate hind-leg terrain and brittle to observation noise.
arXiv:2607. 03454v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In this paper, we propose Adversarial Dynamics Priors (ADP) for perturbation-resilient humanoid locomotion control.
arXiv:2608. 02069v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Developing deployable locomotion policies through conventional reinforcement learning often requires complex reward engineering and expensive training times.
arXiv:2601. 03040v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A fundamental requirement for full autonomy is the ability to sustain accurate navigation in the absence of external data, such as GNSS signals or visual information.
arXiv:2606. 29209v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present AnyBody, a unified whole-body humanoid controller driven by an arbitrary subset of body keypoints chosen at deploy time.
arXiv:2606. 06218v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A policy tuned for one robot often behaves differently on another, whether due to the sim-to-real gap, unknown payloads, or the differing dynamics of two instances of the same robot.
arXiv:2606. 30645v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Perception-based humanoid loco-manipulation requires connecting egocentric observations and task instructions to whole-body motion.
