BEAT: Visual Backdoor Attacks on VLM-based Embodied Agents via Contrastive Trigger Learning

ICLR 2026poster

Recent advances in Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have propelled embodied agents by enabling direct perception, reasoning, and planning task-oriented actions from visual inputs. However, such vision-driven embodied agents open a new attack surface: visual backdoor attacks, where the agent behaves no…

Unleashing Guidance Without Classifiers for Human-Object Interaction Animation

ICLR 2026poster

Generating realistic human-object interaction (HOI) animations remains challenging because it requires jointly modeling dynamic human actions and diverse object geometries. Prior diffusion-based approaches often rely on handcrafted contact priors or human-imposed kinematic constraints to improve con…

Dexplore: Scalable Neural Control for Dexterous Manipulation from Reference Scoped Exploration

CoRL 2025poster

Hand–object motion-capture (MoCap) repositories provide abundant, contact-rich human demonstrations for scaling dexterous manipulation on robots. Yet demonstration inaccuracy and embodiment gaps between human and robot hands challenge direct policy learning. Existing pipelines adapt a three-stage wo…

Aligning Large Multimodal Models with Factually Augmented RLHF

ACL 2024findings

Large Multimodal Models (LMM) are built across modalities and the misalignment between two modalities can result in “hallucination”, generating textual outputs that are not grounded by the multimodal information in context. To address the multimodal misalignment issue, we adapt the Reinforcement Lea…
