Reliable safety evaluation of autonomous vehicles (AVs) is essential to improving road safety, yet it depends critically on realistic simulation of rare crashes. Existing crash scenario generation methods can increase collision occurrence, but often fail to realistically reproduce how crashes evolve before impact or th …
In interactive scenarios, an autonomous driving system is required to generate ego actions under the influence of other agents' behaviors. Existing World Action Models (WAMs) typically model other agents as components of the world model rather than as decision-makers that fundamentally shape the action of the ego agent …
Safe and efficient trajectory planning is essential in autonomous driving. However, existing end-to-end approaches often fall short in both computational efficiency and safety guarantees. Methods based on imitation learning suffer from causal confusion, while rule-based scoring approaches often incur heavy computationa …
Vision-Language-Action models are increasingly effective for robotic manipulation, yet most predict actions directly from current observations without explicitly modeling future scene evolution. Recent methods introduce future prediction to improve action generation, but dense future modeling often requires expensive i …
Vision-language navigation requires embodied agents to navigate environments using natural language instructions and visual observations. Existing approaches typically decompose navigation into sequential language-guided decisions or rely on online exploration without prior environmental knowledge. Scene graph represen …
Socially competent humanoid robots must communicate affect and intent through gesture as well as speech, yet open-ended interaction must become motion that is both expressive and executable on a specific body. This demands semantic flexibility for contextual social intent while preserving deterministic, embodiment-awar …
Force-conditioned vision-language-action (VLA) policies can respond to contact, but when trained solely on demonstrations, their recovery behavior may be limited by demonstration coverage, and they do not learn from deployment outcomes. Human corrective imitation provides additional recovery examples, but its objective …
Deep learning-based visual odometry (VO) has achieved significant progress, yet most existing methods focus on a monocular approach, which suffers from scale ambiguity. Stereo VO provides real metric by its nature, but remains less studied in deep learning VO due to its high computational cost and modeling complexity. …
Actor-critic architecture has been widely used in continuous robot control. However, they rely on learning a value network, introducing additional computational overhead during training. Moreover, policy learning may also be affected by the approximation error of value estimation. Critic-free group relative policy opti …
Parking is a routine yet safety-critical task for autonomous vehicles operating in urban environments. However, cluttered and weakly structured parking spaces, compounded by the interactive uncertainty from surrounding vehicles, hinder reliable maneuver generation. To address these challenges, we develop a waypoint-lev …
Robotic data generation is a promising paradigm for scaling robot learning without collecting large-scale real-world data. However, generating geometrically diverse yet physically valid data for contact-rich tasks remains challenging, especially when success depends on precise geometric interfaces. Standard shape augme …
Learning generalizable robot manipulation policies requires large-scale and diverse interaction data, yet collecting real-world demonstrations remains costly and difficult to scale. Existing approaches to data collection are either dependent on specific robot hardware that limits crowdsourcing and transferability, or s …
