Agent Priors-guided Policy Learning

Puming Jiang, Tianrun Hu, Haozhe Du +4

Robots that learn from a few demonstrations often require two forms of generalization. Compositional generalization recombines skills to solve new tasks, and skill generalization l…

Receding-Horizon Pushing with Composable Object-Centric Policies

Zhiyi Yuan, Tianrun Hu, Anxing Xiao +3

Non-prehensile manipulation is practical for relocating large, heavy, or geometrically ungraspable objects. Yet, long-horizon pushing of arbitrarily-shaped 3D objects couples three…

Hypothesis-driven Model Expansion under Uncertainty for Open-World Robot Planning

Anxing Xiao, Hanbo Zhang, Tianrun Hu +1

We consider an open-world planning setting in which service robots must operate in unknown environments with incomplete knowledge of objects and actions. Traditional closed-world a…

Visibility-Aware Mobile Grasping in Dynamic Environments

Tianrun Hu, Anxing Xiao, David Hsu +1

We consider mobile grasping in unknown and dynamic environments, where a robot must approach and grasp a target object using a camera with a limited field of view. This setting int…

MimicFunc: Imitating Tool Manipulation from a Single Human Video via Functional Correspondence

Chao Tang, Anxing Xiao, Yuhong Deng +5

Imitating tool manipulation from human videos offers an intuitive approach to teaching robots, while also providing a promising and scalable alternative to labor-intensive teleoper…

Chain-of-Action: Trajectory Autoregressive Modeling for Robotic Manipulation

Wenbo Zhang, Tianrun Hu, Hanbo Zhang +7

We present Chain-of-Action (CoA), a novel visuo-motor policy paradigm built upon Trajectory Autoregressive Modeling. Unlike conventional approaches that predict next step action(s)…
