DLO-Lab: Benchmarking Deformable Linear Object Manipulations with Differentiable Physics
Junyi Cao, Yian Wang, Ziyan Xiong +3
We address the challenge of enabling robots to manipulate deformable linear objects (DLOs), such as ropes, cables, and rubber bands. Prior work has primarily focused on narrow, tas…
RoboWits: Unexpected Challenges for Robotic Creative Problem Solving
Chunru Lin, Hongxin Zhang, Fenghao Yu +5
The ability to reason, adapt, and creatively solve problems under unexpected challenges is essential for robots operating in real-world environments. However, current robotic bench…
Virtual Community: An Open World for Humans, Robots, and Society
Qinhong Zhou, Hongxin Zhang, Xiangye Lin +16
The rapid progress in AI and Robotics may lead to a profound societal transformation, as humans and robots begin to coexist within shared communities, introducing both opportunitie…
Articulate AnyMesh: Open-Vocabulary 3D Articulated Objects Modeling
Xiaowen Qiu, Jincheng Yang, Yian Wang +5
3D articulated objects modeling has long been a challenging problem, since it requires to capture both accurate surface geometries and semantically meaningful and spatially precise…
LuciBot: Automated Robot Policy Learning from Generated Videos
Xiaowen Qiu, Yian Wang, Jiting Cai +4
Automatically generating training supervision for embodied tasks is crucial, as manual designing is tedious and not scalable. While prior works use large language models (LLMs) or…
