Unsupervised Camouflaged Object Detection (UCOD) remains a challenging task due to the high intrinsic similarity between target objects and their surroundings, as well as the reliance on noisy pseudo-labels that hinder fine-grained texture learning. While existing refinement strategies aim to allevi
Process Reward Models (PRMs) supervise intermediate reasoning steps in large language models (LLMs), but existing PRMs are mainly trained on general-domain data and struggle with the structured, symbolic, and fact-sensitive nature of financial reasoning. Financial tasks require not only correct fina
Cutting-edge robot learning techniques including foundation models and imitation learning from humans all pose huge demands on large-scale and high-quality datasets which constitute one of the bottleneck in the general intelligent robot fields. This paper presents the Kaiwu multimodal dataset to add…
Pneumatic soft robots are well-suited for minimally invasive surgery owing to their compliance and safe interaction with tissues. However, achieving highly adaptive control is difficult owing to modeling inaccuracies, inter-chamber coupling, and disturbances from surgical instruments. Non-learning a…
Electromyography (EMG) signals are widely used as control inputs for myoelectric exoskeletons. However, muscle fatigue, which can result from prolonged use or heavy loads, significantly affects muscle activation patterns, leading to reduced estimation accuracy. To address this challenge, we propose
Multi-modal fusion perception enhances robotic performance in complex tasks by providing more comprehensive information than single modality. While tactile and proprioceptive sensing are effective for direct contact tasks like grasping, current research mainly focuses on vision-language fusion, negl
Using tactile signal is a natural way to perceive potential dangers and safeguard robots. One possible method is to use full-body tactile sensors on the robot and perform safety maneuvers when dangerous stimuli are detected. In this work, we proposed a method based on full-body tactile sensors that…
Safe reinforcement learning (RL) is a promising approach for many real-world decision-making problems where ensuring safety is a critical necessity. In safe RL research, while expected cumulative safety constraints (ECSCs) are typically the first choices, chance constraints are often more pragmatic…
Along with the advancement of robot skin technology, there has been notable progress in the development of snake robots featuring body-surface tactile perception. In this study, we proposed a locomotion control framework for snake robots that integrates tactile perception to augment their adaptabili…
Robotic grasping in cluttered environments remains a significant challenge due to occlusions and complex object arrangements. We have developed ThinkGrasp, a plug-and-play vision-language grasping system that makes use of GPT-4o's advanced contextual reasoning for grasping strategies. ThinkGrasp can…
In-flight high-speed object capturing is crucial in nature to improve survival and adaptation to the environment, such as the predation of frogs, leopards, and eagles. Despite its ubiquitousness in nature, capturing fast-moving objects is extremely challenging in engineering implementations. In this…
Tactile signals provide rich information about objects via touch and are essential for a robot to perform dex-terous manipulation. Exploring actively via tactile perception collects important information about the workspace. However, designing an effective tactile exploration policy is challenging i…
Accurate prediction of future person location and movement trajectory from an egocentric wearable camera can benefit a wide range of applications, such as assisting visually impaired people in navigation, and the development of mobility assistance for people with disability. In this work, a new egoc…
