MobileVISTA: Generative Data Augmentation for Pose Generalization in Mobile Manipulation
Suzannah Wistreich, Stephen Tian, Isabella Huang +4
Mobile manipulators such as humanoid robots are increasingly deployed in dynamic, unstructured environments to perform dexterous manipulation tasks. However, end-to-end manipulatio…
CoStream: Composing Simple Behaviors for Generalizable Complex Manipulation
Haonan Chen, Yuxiang Ma, Stephen Tian +7
Long-horizon, contact-rich complex manipulation tasks, such as seating a GPU into a PCIe slot, demand both millimeter high precision and out-of-the-box generalization to new tasks.…
InSight: Self-Guided Skill Acquisition via Steerable VLAs
Maggie Wang, Lars Osterberg, Stephen Tian +5
Vision-language-action (VLA) models excel at robot manipulation via imitation learning, but adapting them to new tasks often requires additional human demonstrations, which can be…
Phys2Real: Fusing VLM Priors with Interactive Online Adaptation for Uncertainty-Aware Sim-to-Real Manipulation
Maggie Wang, Stephen Tian, Aiden Swann +3
Learning robotic manipulation policies directly in the real world can be expensive and time-consuming. While reinforcement learning (RL) policies trained in simulation present a sc…
DexSkin: High-Coverage Conformable Robotic Skin for Learning Contact-Rich Manipulation
Suzannah Wistreich, Baiyu Shi, Stephen Tian +5
Human skin provides a rich tactile sensing stream, localizing intentional and unintentional contact events over a large and contoured region. Replicating these tactile sensing capa…
Digital Twin Catalog: A Large-Scale Photorealistic 3D Object Digital Twin Dataset
Zhao Dong, Ka Chen, Zhaoyang Lv +14
We introduce the Digital Twin Catalog (DTC), a new large-scale photorealistic 3D object digital twin dataset. A digital twin of a 3D object is a highly detailed, virtually indistin…
View-Invariant Policy Learning via Zero-Shot Novel View Synthesis
Stephen Tian, Blake Wulfe, Kyle Sargent +4
Large-scale visuomotor policy learning is a promising approach toward developing generalizable manipulation systems. Yet, policies that can be deployed on diverse embodiments, envi…
RoboPack: Learning Tactile-Informed Dynamics Models for Dense Packing
Bo Ai, Stephen Tian, Haochen Shi +4
Tactile feedback is critical for understanding the dynamics of both rigid and deformable objects in many manipulation tasks, such as non-prehensile manipulation and dense packing.…
DROID: A Large-Scale In-The-Wild Robot Manipulation Dataset
Alexander Khazatsky, Karl Pertsch, Suraj Nair +98
The creation of large, diverse, high-quality robot manipulation datasets is an important stepping stone on the path toward more capable and robust robotic manipulation policies. Ho…
Foundation Models in Robotics: Applications, Challenges, and the Future
Roya Firoozi, Johnathan Tucker, Stephen Tian +12
We survey applications of pretrained foundation models in robotics. Traditional deep learning models in robotics are trained on small datasets tailored for specific tasks, which li…
Learning to Design and Use Tools for Robotic Manipulation
Ziang Liu, Stephen Tian, Michelle Guo +2
When limited by their own morphologies, humans and some species of animals have the remarkable ability to use objects from the environment toward accomplishing otherwise impossible…
Are These the Same Apple? Comparing Images Based on Object Intrinsics
Klemen Kotar, Stephen Tian, Hong-Xing Yu +2
The human visual system can effortlessly recognize an object under different extrinsic factors such as lighting, object poses, and background, yet current computer vision systems o…
