Emergent Communication for Co-constructed Emotion Between Embodied Agents via Collective Predictive Coding
Zehang Zhang, Nguyen Le Hoang, Tadahiro Taniguchi +1
According to the theory of constructed emotion, the brain actively forms emotion categories by integrating multimodal bodily signals, and constructs emotional experiences by using…
EasyControlEdge: A Foundation-Model Fine-Tuning for Edge Detection
Hiroki Nakamura, Hiroto Iino, Masashi Okada +1
We propose EasyControlEdge, adapting an image-generation foundation model to edge detection. In real-world edge detection (e.g., floor-plan walls, satellite roads/buildings, and me…
MolLIBRA: Genetic Molecular Optimization with Multi-Fingerprint Surrogates and Text-Molecule Aligned Critic
Masahi Okada, Kazuki Sakai, Hiroaki Yoshida +2
We study sample-efficient molecular optimization under a limited budget of oracle evaluations. We propose MolLIBRA (MultimOdaLity and Language Integrated Bayesian and evolutionaRy…
Decentralized Collective World Model for Emergent Communication and Coordination
Kentaro Nomura, Tatsuya Aoki, Tadahiro Taniguchi +1
We propose a fully decentralized multi-agent world model that enables both symbol emergence for communication and coordinated behavior through temporal extension of collective pred…
Public Evaluation on Potential Social Impacts of Fully Autonomous Cybernetic Avatars for Physical Support in Daily-Life Environments: Large-Scale Demonstration and Survey at Avatar Land
Lotfi El Hafi, Kazuma Onishi, Shoichi Hasegawa +18
Cybernetic avatars (CAs) are key components of an avatar-symbiotic society, enabling individuals to overcome physical limitations through virtual agents and robotic assistants. Whi…
Haptic-Informed ACT with a Soft Gripper and Recovery-Informed Training for Pseudo Oocyte Manipulation
Pedro Miguel Uriguen Eljuri, Hironobu Shibata, Maeyama Katsuyoshi +2
In this paper, we introduce Haptic-Informed ACT, an advanced robotic system for pseudo oocyte manipulation, integrating multimodal information and Action Chunking with Transformers…
