Existing vision-language-action (VLA) models act in 3D real-world but are typically built on 2D encoders, leaving a spatial reasoning gap that limits generalization and adaptability. Recent 3D integration techniques for VLAs either require specialized sensors and transfer poorly across modalities, o…
Modern robotic manipulation primarily relies on visual observations in a 2D color space for skill learning but suffers from poor generalization. In contrast, humans, living in a 3D world, depend more on physical properties-such as distance, size, and shape-than on texture when interacting with objec…
Offline reinforcement learning (RL) learns policies from fixed datasets, thereby avoiding costly or unsafe environment interactions. However, its reliance on finite static datasets inherently restricts the ability to generalize beyond the training distribution. Prior solutions based on synthetic dat…
Leveraging future observation modeling to facilitate action generation presents a promising avenue for enhancing the capabilities of Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models. However, existing approaches struggle to strike a balance between maintaining efficient, predictable future representations and pr…
The performance of offline reinforcement learning (RL) is sensitive to the proportion of high-return trajectories in the offline dataset. However, in many simulation environments and real-world scenarios, there are large ratios of low-return trajectories rather than high-return trajectories, which m…
Microscopic traffic simulation has become an important tool for autonomous driving training and testing. Although recent data-driven approaches advance realistic behavior generation, their learning still relies primarily on a single real-world dataset, which limits their diversity and thereby hinder
An important challenge in multi-agent reinforcement learning is partial observability, where agents cannot access the global state of the environment during execution and can only receive observations within their field of view. To address this issue, previous works typically use the dimensional-wis…
In offline reinforcement learning (RL), the performance of the learned policy highly depends on the quality of offline datasets. However, the offline dataset contains very limited optimal trajectories in many cases. This poses a challenge for offline RL algorithms, as agents must acquire the ability…
Offline reinforcement learning (RL) aims to learn policies from pre-existing datasets without further interactions, making it a challenging task. Q-learning algorithms struggle with extrapolation errors in offline settings, while supervised learning methods are constrained by model expressiveness. R…
Recent progress in state-only imitation learning extends the scope of applicability of imitation learning to real-world settings by relieving the need for observing expert actions. However, existing solutions only learn to extract a state-to-action mapping policy from the data, without considering h…
Interaction is fundamental in autonomous driving (AD). Despite more than a decade of intensive R&D in AD, how to dynamically interact with diverse road users in various contexts still remains unsolved. Multi-agent learning has recently seen big breakthroughs and has much to offer towards solving rea
