ADAPT: Analytical Disturbance-Aware Policy Training for Humanoid Locomotion
Bofan Lyu, Jindou Jia, Kuangji Zuo +7
Humanoids deployed in human-centered environments must handle force-interactive tasks, where external contacts introduce unexpected disturbances that disrupt locomotion accuracy an…
EM-Fall: Embodied mmWave Sensing for Day-and-Night Fall Detection on Humanoid Robots
Yanshuo Lu, Yuxuan Hu, Shenghai Yuan +5
Falls are one of the leading causes of injury and hospitalization among elderly individuals, making reliable fall awareness an essential capability for safety monitoring in residen…
Gaze2Act: Gaze-Conditioned Vision-Language-Action Policies for Interactive Robot Manipulation
Kuangji Zuo, Gen Li, Bofan Lyu +9
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have recently shown strong potential for robot learning by following language instructions. However, in practice, language alone is often insuff…
MARS Policy: Multimodality Only When It Matters
Jindou Jia, Tuo An, Yuxuan Hu +7
Imitation learning has become a cornerstone for solving complex robotic manipulation tasks. In particular, multimodality, which enables robots to capture diverse yet valid behavior…
OccamToken: Efficient VLM Inference with Training-Free and Budget-Adaptive Token Pruning
Geng Li, Guohao Chen, Ting Chen +6
Vision-language models (VLMs) rely on long visual token sequences for visual understanding, making the prefill stage expensive in both computation and memory. Most existing pruning…
CompassAD: Intent-Driven 3D Affordance Grounding in Functionally Competing Objects
Jingliang Li, Jindou Jia, Tuo An +7
When told to "cut the cake," a robot must choose the knife over nearby scissors, despite both objects affording the same cutting function. In real-world scenes, multiple objects ma…
