ReCoVLA: VLM-Guided Reward Compilation for Failure Recovery in Vision-Language-Action Policies
Haodi Hu, Chung-Ta Huang, Jing Liu +4
Vision-language-action (VLA) policies provide strong priors for language-conditioned manipulation, but remain brittle in off-nominal states requiring targeted recovery. We propose…
Beyond Motion Primitives: Behavioral Activity Recognition from Head-Mounted IMU
Chung-Ta Huang, Leopold Das, Jeffrey Zhou +10
AR smart glasses need continuous behavioral context to offer proactive assistance, yet their most practical always-on sensor, the head-mounted Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), dete…
AI Cosplaying as Astrophysicists: A Controlled Synthetic-Agent Study of AI-Assisted Astrophysical Research Workflows
Chun Huang
Large Language Models (LLMs) are now widely used in astrophysics, but do they actually make our lives easier, or do they merely invent new physics with enough confidence to hide a…
LUMIA: A Handheld Vision-to-Music System for Real-Time, Embodied Composition
Chung-Ta Huang, Connie Cheng, Vealy Lai
Most digital music tools emphasize precision and control, but often lack support for tactile, improvisational workflows grounded in environmental interaction. Lumia addresses this…
