Masked Generative Policy for Robotic Control
Lipeng Zhuang, Shiyu Fan, Florent P. Audonnet +4
We present Masked Generative Policy (MGP), a novel framework for visuomotor imitation learning. We represent actions as discrete tokens, and train a conditional masked transformer…
3D-ADAM: A Dataset for 3D Anomaly Detection in Additive Manufacturing
Paul McHard, Florent P. Audonnet, Oliver Summerell +3
Surface defects are a primary source of yield loss in manufacturing, yet existing anomaly detection methods often fail in real-world deployment due to limited and unrepresentative…
Curio: A Cost-Effective Solution for Robotics Education
Talha Enes Ayranci, Florent P. Audonnet, Gerardo Aragon-Camarasa +2
Student engagement is one of the key challenges in robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) education. Tangible learning approaches, such as educational robots, provide an effecti…
Can Real-to-Sim Approaches Capture Dynamic Fabric Behavior for Robotic Fabric Manipulation?
Yingdong Ru, Lipeng Zhuang, Zhuo He +2
This paper presents a rigorous evaluation of Real-to-Sim parameter estimation approaches for fabric manipulation in robotics. The study systematically assesses three state-of-the-a…
Breaking Down the Barriers: Investigating Non-Expert User Experiences in Robotic Teleoperation in UK and Japan
Florent P Audonnet, Andrew Hamilton, Yakiyasu Domae +2
Robots are being created each year with the goal of integrating them into our daily lives. As such, there is an interest in research in evaluating the trust of humans toward robots…
