DexNinja: Learning Robust Dexterous Cutting Policy with a Real-to-Sim-to-Real Data Engine

Haozhe Lou, Runyi Yang, Wanqi Zhong +10

Cutting a piece of food looks effortless in human hands. For a robot, however, every cut is a high-contact interaction with a deformable, elasto-plastic object whose behavior chang…

G0.5: One Autoregressive Stream for Robot Reasoning and Action

Yicheng Liu, Zibin Dong, Baijun Ye +24

The prevailing recipe for Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models couples a pretrained VLM with a separately trained flow-matching action expert. This makes the VLM a context encoder r…
