The robotic manipulation of Deformable Linear Objects (DLOs) is a fundamental challenge due to the high-dimensional, non-linear dynamics of flexible structures and the complexity of maintaining topolo…
We present FlexiTac, a low-cost, open-source, and scalable piezoresistive tactile sensing solution designed for robotic end-effectors. FlexiTac is a practical "plug-in" module consisting of (i) thin, …
Existing learning-based occupancy prediction methods rely on large-scale 3D annotations and generalize poorly across environments. We present FreeOcc, a training-free framework for open-vocabulary occ…
Range anxiety and long recharging times remain critical barriers to electric vehicle adoption. Dynamic Inductive Charging (DIC) offers a compelling solution by enabling wireless power transfer while d…
Accurate localization is a fundamental requirement for autonomous robots operating in indoor environments. Scene graphs encode the spatial structure of an environment as a hierarchy of semantic entiti…
Despite the rise of token communication (TokCom) as a new paradigm beyond traditional bit communication, existing approaches have primarily adopted artificial intelligence (AI)-centric designs that re…
Despite advances in dexterous hand manipulation, robotic hand design is still largely decoupled from task-driven evaluation and control, limiting systematic optimization. Existing robotic hand co-desi…
Multi-talker automatic speech recognition (ASR) in conversational recordings remains an open problem, particularly in scenarios with large portion of overlapping speech where identifying and transcrib…
Nasotracheal intubation (NTI) is a critical clinical procedure for establishing and maintaining patient airway patency. Machine-assisted NTI has emerged as a pivotal approach for optimizing procedural…
We consider a system of two coupled first-order linear hyperbolic partial differential equations modeling heat transport in a counter-flow heat exchanger: one equation describes the transport of a hot…
Robotic manipulation critically requires reasoning about future spatial-temporal interactions, yet existing VLA policies and world-model-enhanced policies do not fully model action-relevant spatial-te…
Assisting humans in open-world outdoor environments requires robots to translate high-level natural-language intentions into safe, long-horizon, and socially compliant navigation behavior. Existing ma…
Technology mapping is a critical yet challenging stage in logic synthesis. While Large Language Models (LLMs) have been applied to generate optimization scripts, their potential for core algorithm enh…
Deploying a neuro-symbolic task planner on a new domain today requires significant manual effort: a domain expert must author relaxation and complementary rules, and hundreds of training problems must…
Embodied AI and robotic systems increasingly depend on scalable, diverse, and physically grounded 3D content for simulation-based training and real-world deployment. While 3D generative modeling has a…
Dynamical systems (DS) methods for Learning-from-Demonstration (LfD) provide stable, continuous policies from few demonstrations. First-order dynamical systems (DS) are effective for many point-to-poi…
Reliable backup localization for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) operating in GNSS-denied nighttime conditions remains an open challenge due to the severe modality gap between daytime RGB maps and nig…
Current robots are capable of computing plans to accomplish complex tasks. However, real-world environments are inherently open and dynamic, and unforeseen situations frequently arise during plan exec…
Generative motion prediction must satisfy three simultaneous requirements for real-world autonomy: high accuracy, diverse multimodal futures, and strictly bounded latency. Diffusion models meet the fi…
World action models jointly predict future video and action during training, raising an open question about what role the future-prediction branch actually plays. A recent finding shows that this bran…
