Dexterous Point Policy: Learning Point-based Dexterous Hand Policies from Human Demonstrations

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.

Inverse Probability Weighting and Age-of-Information Aggregation for Decentralized Federated Learning under Partial Reception

arXiv:2606. 10774v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Decentralized Federated Learning (DFL) over lossy wireless networks faces two key challenges: selection bias, where updates from poor-quality links are systematically underrepresented due to partial model reception, and update staleness, where asynchronous nodes contribute outdated information.

Failure Modes of Deep Multi-Agent RL in Asynchronous Pricing: Reproducible Triggers, Trace Diagnostics, and a Partial Fix

arXiv:2606. 09884v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study two reproducible failure modes of deep multi-agent reinforcement learning in continuous-time pricing markets: (i) tacit cartel formation between competing DDPG agents, and (ii) actor--critic instability at high event rates.

Encoding the Euler Characteristic Transform

arXiv:2606. 10824v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Euler Characteristic Curve (ECC) records the Euler characteristic of a linearly embedded cell complex as a function of filtration height in a given direction, and the Euler Characteristic Transform (ECT) is the injective shape descriptor obtained by collecting ECCs over many directions.
