arXiv:2606. 10614v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robotic foundation models pre-trained on human demonstration videos have shown promise, but a significant embodiment gap remains when the resulting policies are deployed on real robots.
arXiv:2608. 14028v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dexterous manipulation is a fundamental capability for embodied intelligence, but scaling it remains difficult because robot demonstrations are expensive to collect and action spaces vary across embodiments.
arXiv:2610.02840v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: World action models jointly learn to forecast world dynamics and predict robot actions, such that the learned internal world dynamics guide accurate...
arXiv:2606. 08057v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Egocentric RGB-D videos offer a natural source of human dexterous manipulation demonstrations, but existing data is difficult to use for robot learning because object pose, geometry, and contact information are often missing or require pre-scanned object assets.
Dex-One2Many introduces a real-to-sim-to-real framework that learns a generalizable dexterous manipulation policy from a single human video. By abstracting the video into sequential scene graphs, the method guides reinforcement learning with dense rewards and diverse reset states, enabling efficient exploration while preserving broad generalizability. Trained entirely in simulation, Dex-One2Many achieves zero‑shot transfer to a real multi‑fingered hand and outperforms baselines by 6.5% on seen configurations and 71% on unseen scenarios across five tool‑use and manipulation tasks.
DexTouch-WM is an action‑conditioned world model that learns from scalable human touch to predict future RGB observations and bilateral tactile dynamics for dexterous robot manipulation. By using compatible piezoresistive arrays on both human and robot hands and retargeting human motion into the robot action space, the model can be supervised with human interaction data while keeping a fixed amount of real‑robot supervision. Experiments show that adding up to 100 hours of human interaction improves robot‑domain visual, geometric, and contact prediction, and the model can serve as a surrogate environment for policy evaluation and synthetic trajectory generation.
