The Embodiment Gap in Robot Foundation Models

Yukiyasu Domae, Keisuke Shirai, Hanbit Oh +7

Robot foundation models (RFMs), including vision-language-action (VLA) policies, are often discussed through a scaling view: more data, larger models, and broader benchmarks should…

ORPA: Online Residual Policy Adaptation for Robot Manipulation Control with Human Feedback

Muhammad A. Muttaqien, Tomohiro Motoda, Ryo Hanai +1

Robotic manipulation policies trained via imitation learning, such as Action Chunking with Transformers (ACT), can achieve strong performance under ideal conditions but often remai…

GuidedAttention: Interpretable and Correctable Visual Attention for OOD-Robust Robot Manipulation via Imitation Learning

Masaki Murooka, Ryoichi Nakajo, Keisuke Shirai +4

End-to-end visuomotor policies provide little opportunity for humans to understand or correct the policy's visual attention. We propose GuidedAttention, a visuomotor imitation lear…
