Learning Agile Navigation in Crowded Environments for Quadruped Robots
Shuyu Wu, Zeyu Liu, Tianbao Zhang +6
The paper introduces VOP-Nav, a system that blends Velocity Obstacle theory with end‑to‑end learning to enable quadruped robots to navigate safely and quickly through crowded, dyna…
Harness as an Asset: Enforcing Determinism via the Convergent AI Agent Framework (CAAF)
Tianbao Zhang
Large Language Models produce a controllability gap in safety-critical engineering: even low rates of undetected constraint violations render a system undeployable. Current orchest…
QuadAgent: A Responsive Agent System for Vision-Language Guided Quadrotor Agile Flight
Ao Zhuang, Feng Yu, Tianbao Zhang +2
We present QuadAgent, a training-free agent system for agile quadrotor flight guided by vision-language inputs. Unlike prior end-to-end or serial agent approaches, QuadAgent decoup…
VisFly-Lab: Unified Differentiable Framework for First-Order Reinforcement Learning of Quadrotor Control
Fanxing Li, Fangyu Sun, Tianbao Zhang +5
First-order reinforcement learning with differentiable simulation is promising for quadrotor control, but practical progress remains fragmented across task-specific settings. To su…
Kinema4D: Kinematic 4D World Modeling for Spatiotemporal Embodied Simulation
Mutian Xu, Tianbao Zhang, Tianqi Liu +3
Simulating robot-world interactions is a cornerstone of Embodied AI. Recently, a few works have shown promise in leveraging video generations to transcend the rigid visual/physical…
ABPT: Amended Backpropagation through Time with Partially Differentiable Rewards
Fanxing Li, Fangyu Sun, Tianbao Zhang +1
Quadrotor control policies can be trained with high performance using the exact gradients of the rewards to directly optimize policy parameters via backpropagation-through-time (BP…
