If you are still around, I will be speaking at today's RSS Workshop on Learning Dexterous Manipulation on some cool work we are doing at Berkeley AI Research! Room 323 at 4:45pm Robotics: Science and Systems

Many physical systems are high-dimensional, but we only really care about some low-dimensional subspace. Our latest work shows how to fit these subspaces as small neural maps automatically, *without* any data as input, just the energy function. Read on to learn how! (1/N) 🧵

Congratulations to Leonidas Guibas and colleagues for winning the SIGGRAPH 2023 Test of Time award for their paper “Functional Maps: A Flexible Representation of Maps Between Shapes”! dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/21… people.csail.mit.edu/jsolomon/asset…

🤖 Introducing the future of cleanliness: an artificial intelligence-assisted cleaning robot! Wave goodbye to tedious chores and let cutting-edge AI technology handle the mess #FutureOfWork #AI

Happy to share our #ICCV2023 work by weijia wu that turns stable diffusion into surprisedly good segmentation model for open-vocab words, like Eiffel Tower or Ultraman Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2303.11681 Code: weijiawu.github.io/DiffusionMask/

#ICRA got upgraded to rank A* (maximum rank) in the CORE ranking, well deserved! 👏👏👏 IEEE ICRA

After a fruitful search for a faculty position in Machine Learning + Robotics, happy to share that I am joining the University of Cambridge. Interested in working together? Reach out to connect! (PhD applications due Dec 5th, MPhil - later in Spring) youtube.com/watch?v=LlCwHn…

Are a senior PhD student or early career researcher? It is time to check and apply for #RSSPioneers2024, held jointly with #RSS2024 conference!

Conference on Robot Learning website and call for papers are live now! corl.org Deadline is on June 6! Looking forward to seeing everyone in Munich this November! #CoRL2024

🚀RobotEra & Tsinghua University launch Humanoid-Gym! An open-source sim2real RL framework for humanoid robots. This codebase is verified on RobotEra's humanoid robot XBot (XiaoXing)! Project page: sites.google.com/view/humanoid-… Github : github.com/roboterax/huma… Jianyu Chen Yen-Jen Wang

Achieving bimanual dexterity with RL + Sim2Real! toruowo.github.io/bimanual-twist/ TLDR - We train two robot hands to twist bottle lids using deep RL followed by sim-to-real. A single policy trained with simple simulated bottles can generalize to drastically different real-world objects.

Current 3D generative models are slow and low quality. We present GRM, a large-scale model that reconstructs 3D Gaussians in 0.1s and generates high-quality 3D assets from text or single images in a few seconds. justimyhxu.github.io/projects/grm/ Demo: huggingface.co/spaces/GRM-dem… 1/4

Folding clothes with $250 robot arms. I've added another motor to improve mobility and extend the reach. The CAD files and the code are public at: github.com/AlexanderKoch-… (video at 2x speed)

Check out our paper: arxiv.org/abs/2403.19460 Code: github.com/HeegerGao/RiEM… Awesome cooperation with Zhengrong Xue, Shuying Deng, Tianhai Liang, Siqi Yang, Lin Shao , and Huazhe Harry Xu.

3 papers in #CoRL_2024! Come and talk with me about world model, equivariant learning, and dexterous manipulation! RiEMann: Poster Session 1 Workshops: LEAP, X-Embodiment, MAPoDeL, LFDM. D(R,O)-Grasp gets Best Robotics Paper on MAPoDeL workshop!

We are excited to share our #CORL2024 paper (oral) on "Learning Quadruped Locomotion Using Differentiable Simulation" done in collaboration with Sangbae Kim Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). We present a new way to learn to walk in minutes without parallelization, outperforming PPO in sample efficiency!

Remember TidyBot? We developed an easy-to-assemble, customizable, open-source and low-cost version of our holonomic mobile base. If you are at #CoRL2024 come see our live demo on the 2nd floor and come to Poster 30 at Session 3. x.com/jimmyyhwu/stat…
