Understanding the capability bottlenecks of embodied multimodal large language models (MLLMs) is crucial for improvement. However, existing embodied benchmarks fail to provide actionable insights because they focus on task-level evaluation rather than discovering capability bottlenecks. To address t…
We present Generalizable Hierarchical Skill Learning (GSL), a novel framework for hierarchical policy learning that improves policy generalization and sample efficiency in robot manipulation. One core idea of GSL is to use object-centric skills as an interface that bridges the high-level vision-lang
Recent work has shown that equivariant policy networks can achieve strong performance on robot manipulation tasks with limited human demonstrations. However, existing equivariant methods typically require structured inputs, such as 3D point clouds or top-down camera views, which prevents their use…
Equivariant models have recently been shown to improve the data efficiency of diffusion policy by a significant margin. However, prior work that explored this direction focused primarily on point cloud inputs generated by multiple cameras fixed in the workspace. This type of point cloud input is not…
Recently, equivariant neural networks for policy learning have shown promising improvements in sample efficiency and generalization, however, their wide adoption faces substantial barriers due to implementation complexity. Equivariant architectures typically require specialized mathematical formulat…
While grasp detection is an important part of any robotic manipulation pipeline, reliable and accurate grasp detection in $\\mathrm{SE}(3)$ remains a research challenge. Many robotics applications in unstructured environments such as the home or warehouse would benefit a lot from better grasp perfor…
