With the maturation of differentiable physics, its role in various downstream applications—such as model-predictive control, robotic design optimization, and neural PDE solvers—has become increasingly important. However, the derivative information provided by differentiable simulators can exhibit ab…
Robot simulators are indispensable tools across many fields, and recent research has significantly improved their functionality by incorporating additional gradient information. However, existing differentiable robot simulators suffer from non-differentiable singularities, when robots undergo substa…
Estimating simulation-ready scenes from real-world observations is crucial for downstream planning and policy learning tasks. Regretfully, existing methods struggle in cluttered environments, often exhibiting prohibitive computational cost, poor robustness, and restricted generality when scaling to …
We present an end-to-end differentiable learning algorithm for multi-agent navigation policies. Compared with prior model-free learning algorithms, our method leads to a significant speedup via the gradient information. Our key innovation lies in a novel differentiability analysis of the optimizatio
