Humans effortlessly integrate common-sense knowledge with sensory input from vision and touch to understand their surroundings. Emulating this capability, we introduce FusionSense, a novel 3D reconstruction framework that enables robots to fuse priors from foundation models with highly sparse observ
3D reassembly is a challenging spatial intelligence task with broad applications across scientific domains. While large-scale synthetic datasets have fueled promising learning-based approaches, their generalizability to different domains is limited. Critically, it remains uncertain whether models tr…
Large Vision Language Models (VLMs) have been adopted in robotics for their strong common sense understanding and generalization capabilities. Existing works leverage VLMs for task and motion planning based on language instructions and robot observations. In this work, we explore using VLM to interp
A robot’s ability to anticipate the 3D action target location of a hand’s movement from egocentric videos can greatly improve safety and efficiency in human-robot interaction (HRI). While previous research predominantly focused on semantic action classification or 2D target region prediction, we arg…
Lithic Use-Wear Analysis (LUWA) using microscopic images is an underexplored vision-for-science research area. It seeks to distinguish the worked material which is critical for understanding archaeological artifacts material interactions tool functionalities and dental records. However this challeng…
We propose DeepExplorer, a simple and lightweight metric-free exploration method for topological mapping of unknown environments. It performs task and motion planning (TAMP) entirely in image feature space. The task planner is a recurrent network using the latest image observation sequence to halluc…
