Learning to Throw: Agile and Accurate Cable-Suspended Payload Delivery with a Quadrotor
Yifan Zhai, Elia Raimondi, Yunfan Ren +4
Quadrotors offer the agility needed to rapidly transport suspended payloads during time-critical applications, including search-and-rescue and medical delivery. While suspended-pay…
Continual Robot Policy Learning via Variational Neural Dynamics
Jiaxu Xing, Zhiyuan Zhu, Yunfan Ren +4
Robots deployed in the real world rarely operate under a single fixed dynamics model: wind changes, payloads vary, batteries drain, contacts shift, and hardware wears. Yet most lea…
Large Scale Robotic Material Handling: Learning, Planning, and Control
Filippo A. Spinelli, Yifan Zhai, Fang Nan +6
Bulk material handling involves the efficient and precise moving of large quantities of materials, a core operation in many industries, including cargo ship unloading, waste sortin…
ExT: Towards Scalable Autonomous Excavation via Large-Scale Multi-Task Pretraining and Fine-Tuning
Yifan Zhai, Lorenzo Terenzi, Patrick Frey +3
Scaling up the deployment of autonomous excavators is of great economic and societal importance. Yet it remains a challenging problem, as effective systems must robustly handle uns…
