Visual Sim-to-Real Learning for Robotic Insertion under Geometric Variations: Application to Rebar Installation
Tao Sun, Beining Han, Patrick Yin +5
Rebar insertion is among the most repetitive and physically demanding tasks on construction sites, and a contact-rich problem at 1.4 mm clearance. The parts, however, vary at two l…
Emergent Dexterity via Diverse Resets and Large-Scale Reinforcement Learning
Patrick Yin, Tyler Westenbroek, Zhengyu Zhang +9
Reinforcement learning in massively parallel physics simulations has driven major progress in sim-to-real robot learning. However, current approaches remain brittle and task-specif…
Simulation Distillation: Pretraining World Models in Simulation for Rapid Real-World Adaptation
Jacob Levy, Tyler Westenbroek, Kevin Huang +6
Robot learning requires adaptation methods that improve reliably from limited, mixed-quality interaction data. This is especially challenging in long-horizon, contact-rich tasks, w…
Towards Embodiment Scaling Laws in Robot Locomotion
Bo Ai, Liu Dai, Nico Bohlinger +7
Cross-embodiment generalization underpins the vision of building generalist embodied agents for any robot, yet its enabling factors remain poorly understood. We investigate embodim…
Rapidly Adapting Policies to the Real World via Simulation-Guided Fine-Tuning
Patrick Yin, Tyler Westenbroek, Simran Bagaria +4
Robot learning requires a considerable amount of high-quality data to realize the promise of generalization. However, large data sets are costly to collect in the real world. Physi…
ASID: Active Exploration for System Identification in Robotic Manipulation
Marius Memmel, Andrew Wagenmaker, Chuning Zhu +3
Model-free control strategies such as reinforcement learning have shown the ability to learn control strategies without requiring an accurate model or simulator of the world. While…
DROID: A Large-Scale In-The-Wild Robot Manipulation Dataset
Alexander Khazatsky, Karl Pertsch, Suraj Nair +98
The creation of large, diverse, high-quality robot manipulation datasets is an important stepping stone on the path toward more capable and robust robotic manipulation policies. Ho…
Stabilizing Contrastive RL: Techniques for Robotic Goal Reaching from Offline Data
Chongyi Zheng, Benjamin Eysenbach, Homer Walke +4
Robotic systems that rely primarily on self-supervised learning have the potential to decrease the amount of human annotation and engineering effort required to learn control strat…
Generalization with Lossy Affordances: Leveraging Broad Offline Data for Learning Visuomotor Tasks
Kuan Fang, Patrick Yin, Ashvin Nair +3
The utilization of broad datasets has proven to be crucial for generalization for a wide range of fields. However, how to effectively make use of diverse multi-task data for novel…
Bisimulation Makes Analogies in Goal-Conditioned Reinforcement Learning
Philippe Hansen-Estruch, Amy Zhang, Ashvin Nair +2
Building generalizable goal-conditioned agents from rich observations is a key to reinforcement learning (RL) solving real world problems. Traditionally in goal-conditioned RL, an…
Planning to Practice: Efficient Online Fine-Tuning by Composing Goals in Latent Space
Kuan Fang, Patrick Yin, Ashvin Nair +1
General-purpose robots require diverse repertoires of behaviors to complete challenging tasks in real-world unstructured environments. To address this issue, goal-conditioned reinf…
