ODYN: An All-Shifted Non-Interior-Point Method for Quadratic Programming in Robotics and AI
Jose Rojas, Aristotelis Papatheodorou, Sergi Martinez +3
We introduce ODYN, a novel all-shifted primal-dual non-interior-point quadratic programming (QP) solver designed to efficiently handle challenging dense and sparse QPs. ODYN combin…
System Identification under Constraints and Disturbance: A Bayesian Estimation Approach
Sergi Martinez, Steve Tonneau, Carlos Mastalli
We introduce a Bayesian system identification (SysID) framework for jointly estimating robot's state trajectories and physical parameters with high accuracy. It embeds physically c…
Gemini Robotics 1.5: Pushing the Frontier of Generalist Robots with Advanced Embodied Reasoning, Thinking, and Motion Transfer
Gemini Robotics Team, Abbas Abdolmaleki, Saminda Abeyruwan +169
General-purpose robots need a deep understanding of the physical world, advanced reasoning, and general and dexterous control. This report introduces the latest generation of the G…
Endpoint-Explicit Differential Dynamic Programming via Exact Resolution
Maria Parilli, Sergi Martinez, Carlos Mastalli
We introduce a novel method for handling endpoint constraints in constrained differential dynamic programming (DDP). Unlike existing approaches, our method guarantees quadratic con…
Multi-Contact Inertial Parameters Estimation and Localization in Legged Robots
Sergi Martinez, Robert J. Griffin, Carlos Mastalli
Optimal estimation is a promising tool for estimation of payloads' inertial parameters and localization of robots in the presence of multiple contacts. To harness its advantages in…
