Hybrid Diffusion Policies with Projective Geometric Algebra for Efficient Robot Manipulation Learning

ICRA 2026poster

Diffusion policies are a powerful paradigm for robot learning, but their training is often inefficient. A key reason is that networks must relearn fundamental spatial concepts, such as translations and rotations, from scratch for every new task. To alleviate this redundancy, we propose embedding geo…

Subsecond 3D Mesh Generation for Robot Manipulation

ICRA 2026poster

3D meshes are a fundamental representation widely used in computer science and engineering. In robotics, they are particularly valuable because they capture objects in a form that aligns directly with how robots interact with the physical world, enabling core capabilities such as predicting stable g…

Turning Stale Gradients into Stable Gradients: Coherent Coordinate Descent with Implicit Landscape Smoothing for Lightweight Zeroth-Order Optimization

ICML 2026poster

Zeroth-Order (ZO) optimization is pivotal for scenarios where backpropagation is unavailable, such as memory-constrained on-device learning and black-box optimization. However, existing methods face a stark trade-off: they are either sample-inefficient (e.g., standard finite differences) or suffer f…

Dynamic Rank Adjustment in Diffusion Policies for Efficient and Flexible Training

RSS 2025poster

Diffusion policies trained via offline behavioral cloning have recently gained traction in robotic motion generation. While effective, these policies typically require a large number of trainable parameters. This model size affords powerful representations but also incurs high computational cost dur…
