arXiv:2505. 03296v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present Mixture of Discrete-time Gaussian Processes (MiDiGap), a novel approach for flexible policy representation and imitation learning in robot manipulation.
arXiv:2608.22296v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quadruped mobile manipulation requires two tightly coupled capabilities: reaching manipulation-ready configurations and maintaining stable contact th...
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.
arXiv:2604. 17787v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Precision-critical manipulation requires both global trajectory organization and local execution correction, yet most vision-language-action (VLA) policies generate actions within a single unified space.
arXiv:2606. 24884v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-action (VLA) models can learn manipulation skills from demonstrations, but their capabilities are bounded by the skills in the training data.
Learning humanoid-object interaction requires coordinating whole-body balance, locomotion, and dexterous hand contact to control both robot and object motion. Human demonstrations provide examples of...
