The paper introduces QDTraj, a method that uses Quality‑Diversity algorithms to automatically generate a diverse set of low‑level trajectory primitives for manipulating articulated objects. By leveraging sparse reward exploration, QDTraj produces at least five times more diverse trajectories for hinge and slider tasks compared to baseline methods, and demonstrates strong generalization across 30 articulations from the PartNetMobility dataset, averaging 704 trajectories per task. The resulting primitives are validated both in simulation and on real robots, with the code released publicly.

The paper introduces a novel end‑to‑end, size‑agnostic graph reinforcement learning framework for the one‑dimensional bin packing problem (1D‑BPP). It models packing as a Markov decision process on an item‑compatibility graph, where a graph neural network actor‑critic policy learns to merge compatible partial bins. Empirical results on the BPPLIB benchmark show that the learned policy reduces the mean optimality gap of a constructive heuristic from 2.66 % to 2.31 %, performs competitively against other learned methods, and outperforms a state‑of‑the‑art learned solver on the hardest benchmark family.
