Embodied Human-Robot Interaction via Acoustics: A MARL Approach with AcoustoBots for Spatial Data Physicalization
Shiqi Liu, Narsimlu Kemsaram, Prateek Mittal +2
Traditional data physicalization is often static and disconnected from real environments, limiting its ability to convey embodied spatial dynamics and engage users. To address this…
Pushing Forward Pareto Frontiers of Proactive Agents with Behavioral Agentic Optimization
Yihang Yao, Zhepeng Cen, Haohong Lin +6
Proactive large language model (LLM) agents aim to actively plan, query, and interact over multiple turns, enabling efficient task completion beyond passive instruction following a…
APEX: Learning Adaptive High-Platform Traversal for Humanoid Robots
Yikai Wang, Tingxuan Leng, Changyi Lin +5
Humanoid locomotion has advanced rapidly with deep reinforcement learning (DRL), enabling robust feet-based traversal over uneven terrain. Yet platforms beyond leg length remain la…
Query-Centric Diffusion Policy for Generalizable Robotic Assembly
Ziyi Xu, Haohong Lin, Shiqi Liu +1
The robotic assembly task poses a key challenge in building generalist robots due to the intrinsic complexity of part interactions and the sensitivity to noise perturbations in con…
LocoTouch: Learning Dynamic Quadrupedal Transport with Tactile Sensing
Changyi Lin, Yuxin Ray Song, Boda Huo +9
Quadrupedal robots have demonstrated remarkable agility and robustness in traversing complex terrains. However, they struggle with dynamic object interactions, where contact must b…
Learning Multi-Agent Loco-Manipulation for Long-Horizon Quadrupedal Pushing
Yuming Feng, Chuye Hong, Yaru Niu +6
Recently, quadrupedal locomotion has achieved significant success, but their manipulation capabilities, particularly in handling large objects, remain limited, restricting their us…
