ZEST: Zero-shot Embodied Skill Transfer for Athletic Robot Control

Jean Pierre Sleiman, He Li, Alphonsus Adu-Bredu +25

Achieving robust, human-like whole-body control on humanoid robots for agile, contact-rich behaviors remains a central challenge, demanding heavy per-skill engineering and a brittl…

Exploring Kinodynamic Fabrics for Reactive Whole-Body Control of Underactuated Humanoid Robots

Alphonsus Adu-Bredu, Grant Gibson, Jessy W. Grizzle

For bipedal humanoid robots to successfully operate in the real world, they must be competent at simultaneously executing multiple motion tasks while reacting to unforeseen externa…

Optimal Constrained Task Planning as Mixed Integer Programming

Alphonsus Adu-Bredu, Nikhil Devraj, Odest Chadwicke Jenkins

For robots to successfully execute tasks assigned to them, they must be capable of planning the right sequence of actions. These actions must be both optimal with respect to a spec…
