Humanoid robots are designed to perform diverse loco-manipulation tasks. However, they face challenges due to their high-dimensional and unstable dynamics, as well as the complex contact-rich nature of the tasks. Model-based optimal control methods offer flexibility to define precise motion but are …
Humanoid locomotion is a challenging task due to its inherent complexity and high-dimensional dynamics, as well as the need to adapt to diverse and unpredictable environments. In this work, we introduce a novel learning framework for effectively training a humanoid locomotion policy that imitates th…
We introduce WorldGen, a method for generating large, fully formed, navigable 3D worlds from a single text prompt. Existing approaches to 3D scene generation often trade off scene diversity, completeness, and correctness in different ways. We push this envelope by producing large scenes explicitly d
We introduce AutoPartGen, a model that generates objects composed of 3D parts in an autoregressive manner. This model can take as input an image of an object, 2D masks of the object's parts, or an existing 3D object, and generate a corresponding compositional 3D reconstruction. Our approach builds…

Human motion driven control (HMDC) is an effective approach for generating natural and compelling robot motions while preserving high-level semantics. However, establishing the correspondence between humans and robots with different body structures is not straightforward due to the mismatches in kin…
Shape and geometric patterns are essential in defining stylistic identity. However current 3D style transfer methods predominantly focus on transferring colors and textures often overlooking geometric aspects. In this paper we introduce Geometry Transfer a novel method that leverages geometric defor…
To apply optical flow in practice, it is often necessary to resize the input to smaller dimensions in order to reduce computational costs. However, downsizing inputs makes the estimation more challenging because objects and motion ranges become smaller. Even though recent approaches have demonstrate…
Control of legged robots is a challenging problem that has been investigated by different approaches, such as model-based control and learning algorithms. This work proposes a novel Imitating and Finetuning Model Predictive Control (IFM) framework to take the strengths of both approaches. Our framew
Self-supervised monocular depth estimation has been widely studied, owing to its practical importance and recent promising improvements. However, most works suffer from limited supervision of photometric consistency, especially in weak texture regions and at object boundaries. To overcome this weakn…
