In this work, we study Compositional Dexterous Functional Object Manipulation (CD-FOM): tasks such as aiming and actuating a spray bottle on a plant or a glue gun on wood, which require both actuating an object's internal mechanism and controlling its pose to apply the object's function to the envir…
Large-scale chemical reaction datasets are crucial for AI research in chemistry. However, existing chemical reaction data often exist as images within papers, making them not machine-readable and unusable for training machine learning models. In response to this challenge, we propose the RxnCaption
Privacy-sensitive users require deploying large language models (LLMs) within their own infrastructure ( on-premises ) to safeguard private data and enable customization. However, vulnerabilities in local environments can lead to unauthorized access and potential model theft. To address this, prior
Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have sparked growing interest in agentic workflows—structured sequences of LLM invocations designed to solve complex tasks. However, existing approaches often rely on static templates or manually designed workflows, which limit adaptability to diverse
This work demonstrates that diffusion models can achieve font-controllable multilingual text rendering using just raw images without font label annotations. Visual text rendering remains a significant challenge. While recent methods condition diffusion on glyphs, it is impossible to retrieve exact f
We introduce OpenHuEval, the first benchmark for LLMs focusing on the Hungarian language and specifics. OpenHuEval is constructed from a vast collection of Hungarian-specific materials sourced from multiple origins. In the construction, we incorporated the latest design principles for evaluating LLM…
This work discusses how to build more rational language and multimodal agents and what criteria define rationality in intelligent systems.Rationality is the quality of being guided by reason, characterized by decision-making that aligns with evidence and logical principles. It plays a crucial role i…
We introduce Vysics, a vision-and-physics framework for a robot to build an expressive geometry and dynamics model of a single rigid body, using a seconds-long RGBD video and the robot’s proprioception. While the computer vision community has built powerful visual 3D perception algorithms, cluttered…
This study introduces a hypothesis-testing framework to assess whether large language models (LLMs) possess genuine reasoning abilities or primarily depend on token bias. We go beyond evaluating LLMs on accuracy; rather, we aim to investigate their token bias in solving logical reasoning tasks. Spec…
Although end-to-end robot learning has shown some success for robot manipulation, the learned policies are often not sufficiently robust to variations in object pose or geometry. To improve the policy generalization, we introduce spatially-grounded parameterized motion primitives in our method HACMa…
Autonomous systems that efficiently utilize tools can assist humans in completing many common tasks such as cooking and cleaning. However, current systems fall short of matching human-level of intelligence in terms of adapting to novel tools. Prior works based on affordance often make strong assumpt…
Manipulating objects without grasping them is an essential component of human dexterity, referred to as non-prehensile manipulation. Non-prehensile manipulation may enable more complex interactions with the objects, but also presents challenges in reasoning about gripper-object interactions. In this…
We study the online restless bandit problem, where each arm evolves according to a Markov chain independently, and the reward of pulling an arm depends on both the current state of the corresponding Markov chain and the pulled arm. The agent (decision maker) does not know the transition functions an…
Robots with a parallel-jaw gripper and suction cup is an adaptive and efficient robotic picking system. This paper proposed Policy-Oriented Instance Segmentation (POIS) for ambidextrous robots. POIS can generate a pair of target masks that allows ambidextrous robots to pick in parallel. It takes a d…
