T-Rex: Tactile-Reactive Dexterous Manipulation
Dantong Niu, Zhuoyang Liu, Zekai Wang +31
The ability to react dynamically to tactile signals has long been considered crucial to agile human-level dexterity. Yet contemporary learning-based Vision-Language-Action (VLA) mo…
Contrastive Action-Image Pre-training for Visuomotor Control
Yuvan Sharma, Dantong Niu, Anirudh Pai +16
Existing vision encoders for robotics face a fundamental bottleneck: robotic datasets lack the scale necessary for large-scale pre-training. Prior work circumvents this data scarci…
Learning to Grasp Anything by Playing with Random Toys
Dantong Niu, Yuvan Sharma, Baifeng Shi +11
Robotic manipulation policies often struggle to generalize to novel objects, limiting their real-world utility. In contrast, cognitive science suggests that children develop genera…
Pre-training Auto-regressive Robotic Models with 4D Representations
Dantong Niu, Yuvan Sharma, Haoru Xue +5
Foundation models pre-trained on massive unlabeled datasets have revolutionized natural language and computer vision, exhibiting remarkable generalization capabilities, thus highli…
In-Context Learning Enables Robot Action Prediction in LLMs
Yida Yin, Zekai Wang, Yuvan Sharma +3
Recently, Large Language Models (LLMs) have achieved remarkable success using in-context learning (ICL) in the language domain. However, leveraging the ICL capabilities within LLMs…
