Humanoid Horizon: Extending Task Horizon in Whole-Body Loco-Manipulation via Parallel Training, Dynamic Starting, and Reward Gating
Haozhuo Zhang, Qiang Zhang, Jian Tang +4
Cluttered indoor environments, where large and heavy objects are scattered across diverse surfaces, require humanoid robots to sequentially navigate, grasp, transport, and accurate…
CoCoNav: Conformal Control for Safe Robot Navigation in Crowds
Cheng Guo, Mingzhe Ni, Zheng Liang +5
Safe and efficient robot navigation in crowds requires anticipating pedestrian motion despite uncertain and potentially shifting prediction errors. Existing reactive methods can pr…
SSI-Policy: Learning Structured Scene Interfaces for Vision-Language Robotic Manipulation
Kaijun Wang, Zikai Ouyang, Xuping Wu +6
Real-world robotic manipulation demands spatial grounding, task-aware reasoning, and precise control. Learning such capabilities becomes particularly challenging in the low-data re…
PoseDiff: A Unified Diffusion Model Bridging Robot Pose Estimation and Video-to-Action Control
Haozhuo Zhang, Michele Caprio, Jing Shao +4
We present PoseDiff, a conditional diffusion model that unifies robot state estimation and control within a single framework. At its core, PoseDiff maps raw visual observations int…
LHM-Humanoid: Long-Horizon Human Motion Control for Continuous Object Transport in Cluttered Scenes
Haozhuo Zhang, Jingkai Sun, Michele Caprio +5
Physics-based human motion control can make a simulated character walk, sit, and manipulate objects with high physical realism. Almost always, though, this happens in short, isolat…
