Differentiable Gaussian Splatting (GS) has emerged as a powerful paradigm for scene representation, enabling efficient rendering and real-time editing. However, existing GS-based methods, which rely mainly on clear visual images, perform poorly in underwater environments due to camera distortions su…
Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) agents facilitate Graphical User Interface (GUI) automation but struggle with long-horizon, cross-application tasks due to limited context windows. While memory systems provide a viable solution, existing paradigms struggle to adapt to dynamic GUI environments,…
Continual Offline Reinforcement Learning (CORL) enables building long-term autonomous agents from static datasets. However, it faces heterogeneity in environment dynamics, reward functions, and behavior policies across tasks. Combined with the inherent distribution shift in offline learning, this re…
Forward-looking sonar is essential for underwater perception especially in turbid waters, yet its images are often strongly degraded by various noises, including speckle, sidelobe, and structural noises, which severely hinder downstream tasks such as underwater reconstruction, positioning, and navig…
Autonomous agents have recently achieved remarkable progress across diverse domains, yet most evaluations focus on short-horizon, fully observable tasks. In contrast, many critical real-world tasks, such as large-scale software development, commercial investment, and scientific discovery, unfold in …

Effective 3D reconstruction utilizing imaging sonars is vital for underwater robots, particularly in turbid water conditions. The absence of elevation angles in acoustic echo measurements significantly slows down the Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) method. This is attributed to the differentiable rende
Accurately localization between multi-robots is crucial for many underwater applications, such as tracking, convoying and subsea intervention tasks. 6D pose estimation is a fundamental task that enables precise object localization in 3D space with full six degrees of freedom. However, one critical c
Cable-Driven Parallel Robots (CDPRs) have been proposed for a variety of applications such as material handling, rehabilitation, and instrumentation. However, the collision-free constraint of CDPRs limits the workspace of CDPRs and the feasible position of anchor points. To address the collision-fre…
Does BERT store surface knowledge in its bottom layers, syntactic knowledge in its middle layers, and semantic knowledge in its upper layers? In re-examining Jawahar et al. (2019) and Tenney et al.’s (2019a) probes into the structure of BERT, we have found that the pipeline-like separation that they…
This paper presents an observer-integrated Reinforcement Learning (RL) approach, called Disturbance OB-server Network (DOB-Net), for robots operating in environments where disturbances are unknown and time-varying, and may frequently exceed robot control capabilities. The DOB-Net integrates a distur…
This paper presents a unified motion planning approach for an Intervention Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (I-AUV) in a cluttered environment with localization uncertainty. With the uncertainty being propagated by an information filter, a trajectory optimization problem closed by a Linear-Quadratic-Ga…
