Imitation learning from human demonstrations is an effective means to teach robots manipulation skills. But data acquisition is a major bottleneck in applying this paradigm more broadly, due to the high costs and human efforts involved. There has been significant interest in imitation learning for b
Developing robotic systems capable of robustly executing long-horizon manipulation tasks with human-level dexterity is challenging, as such tasks require both physical dexterity and seamless sequencing of manipulation skills while robustly handling environment variations. While imitation learning of…
Understanding and reasoning about the 4D space-time is crucial for Vision-and-Language Navigation (VLN). However, previous works lack in-depth exploration in this aspect, resulting in bottlenecked spatial perception and action precision of VLN agents. In this work, we introduce NaVid-4D, a Vision La
Data scaling and standardized evaluation benchmarks have driven remarkable advances in natural language processing and computer vision. However, in robotics, scaling up data and establishing evaluation protocols pose significant challenges. Directly collecting real-world data is inefficient and reso…
This paper introduces DiffTORI, which utilizes $\textbf{Diff}$erentiable $\textbf{T}$rajectory $\textbf{O}$ptimization as the policy representation to generate actions for deep $\textbf{R}$einforcement and $\textbf{I}$mitation learning. Trajectory optimization is a powerful and widely used algorithm…
We introduce LOTUS, a continual imitation learning algorithm that empowers a physical robot to continuously and efficiently learn to solve new manipulation tasks throughout its lifespan. The core idea behind LOTUS is constructing an ever-growing skill library from a sequence of new tasks with a smal…
We propose a novel, object-agnostic method for learning a universal policy for dexterous object grasping from realistic point cloud observations and proprioceptive information under a table-top setting, namely UniDexGrasp++. To address the challenge of learning the vision-based policy across thousan…
In this work, we tackle the problem of learning universal robotic dexterous grasping from a point cloud observation under a table-top setting. The goal is to grasp and lift up objects in high-quality and diverse ways and generalize across hundreds of categories and even the unseen. Inspired by succe…
We present HOI4D, a large-scale 4D egocentric dataset with rich annotations, to catalyze the research of category-level human-object interaction. HOI4D consists of 2.4M RGB-D egocentric video frames over 4000 sequences collected by 9 participants interacting with 800 different object instances from…
Generalizable object manipulation skills are critical for intelligent and multi-functional robots to work in real-world complex scenes. Despite the recent progress in reinforcement learning, it is still very challenging to learn a generalizable manipulation policy that can handle a category of geome
