TARMAC: A Taxonomy for Robot Manipulation in Chemistry
Kefeng Huang, Jonathon Pipe, Alice E. Martin +5
Chemistry laboratory automation aims to increase throughput, reproducibility, and safety, yet many existing systems still depend on frequent human intervention. Advances in robotic…
Rise of the Robochemist
Jihong Zhu, Kefeng Huang, Jonathon Pipe +3
Chemistry, a long-standing discipline, has historically relied on manual and often time-consuming processes. While some automation exists, the field is now on the cusp of a signifi…
Experimental Characterization and Dynamic Modeling of THz Channels Under Fog Conditions
Jiaobiao Zhao, Kefeng Huang, Xiaoxiang Li +7
The terahertz (THz) band is a promising candidate for sixth-generation wireless networks, but its deploymen in outdoor environments is challenged by meteorological phenomena, parti…
VLM-TDP: VLM-guided Trajectory-conditioned Diffusion Policy for Robust Long-Horizon Manipulation
Kefeng Huang, Tingguang Li, Yuzhen Liu +3
Diffusion policy has demonstrated promising performance in the field of robotic manipulation. However, its effectiveness has been primarily limited in short-horizon tasks, and its…
