WCM: World-Cognition Model for Generalizable Human-Robot Interaction
Yuzhen Chen, KC Zhou
Language agents can now interact fluently with users in software, but robots still struggle to bring comparable interaction to physical tasks. Current robot-control paradigms, incl…
SLIM-VDB: A Real-Time 3D Probabilistic Semantic Mapping Framework
Anja Sheppard, Parker Ewen, Joey Wilson +6
This paper introduces SLIM-VDB, a new lightweight semantic mapping system with probabilistic semantic fusion for closed-set or open-set dictionaries. Advances in data structures fr…
DEFT: Differentiable Branched Discrete Elastic Rods for Modeling Furcated DLOs in Real-Time
Yizhou Chen, Xiaoyue Wu, Yeheng Zong +4
Autonomous wire harness assembly requires robots to manipulate complex branched cables with high precision and reliability. A key challenge in automating this process is predicting…
Differentiable Discrete Elastic Rods for Real-Time Modeling of Deformable Linear Objects
Yizhou Chen, Yiting Zhang, Zachary Brei +4
This paper addresses the task of modeling Deformable Linear Objects (DLOs), such as ropes and cables, during dynamic motion over long time horizons. This task presents significant…
You've Got to Feel It To Believe It: Multi-Modal Bayesian Inference for Semantic and Property Prediction
Parker Ewen, Hao Chen, Yuzhen Chen +4
Robots must be able to understand their surroundings to perform complex tasks in challenging environments and many of these complex tasks require estimates of physical properties s…
