We present a unifying Nearly Asymptotically Invariant Manifold (NAIM) framework for understanding Nesterovs Accelerated Gradient (NAG) method. By lifting the first-order gradient flow into a second-or…
The real-world deployment of Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models remains limited by the risk of unpredictable and irreversible physical harm. However, we currently lack effective mechanisms to proacti…
Pretrained video generation models provide strong priors for robot control, but existing unified world action models still struggle to decode reliable actions without substantial robot-specific traini…
Teleoperation is a key paradigm for transferring human dexterity to robots, yet most prior work targets objects that are initially static, such as grasping or manipulation. Dynamic object catch, where…
Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) systems have growing applications in sensitive domains such as mental health and education, where biased predictions can cause harm. Traditional fairness metrics, such…
We propose glaucoma lesion evaluation and analysis with multimodal imaging (GLEAM), the first publicly available tri-modal glaucoma dataset comprising scanning laser ophthalmoscopy fundus images, circ…
Recent advances in geometric foundation models have emerged as a promising alternative for addressing the challenge of dense reconstruction in monocular visual simultaneous localization and mapping (S…
Automatic speech recognition (ASR) degrades severely in noisy environments. Although speech enhancement (SE) front-ends effectively suppress background noise, they often introduce artifacts that harm …
The performance of state-of-the-art speech enhancement (SE) models considerably degrades for pathological speech due to atypical acoustic characteristics and limited data availability. This paper syst…
Humanoid robots show promise for complex whole-body tasks in unstructured environments. Although Human-Object Interaction (HOI) has advanced, most methods focus on fully actuated objects rigidly coupl…
Vision Language Action (VLA) models close the perception action loop by translating multimodal instructions into executable behaviors, but this very capability magnifies safety risks: jailbreaks that …
The deployment of medium-range battery electric aircraft is a promising pathway to improve the environmental footprint of air mobility. Yet such a deployment would be accompanied by significant electr…
Hybrid AC/DC microgrids with distributed energy storage (DS) improve power reliability in remote areas. Existing power management methods either focus on steady-state power sharing or transient inerti…
Robots must balance compliance with safety and social expectations as blind obedience can cause harm, while over-refusal erodes trust. Existing safe reinforcement learning (RL) benchmarks emphasize ph…
Connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) have the potential to enhance driving safety, for example by enabling safe vehicle following and more efficient traffic scheduling. For such future deployments,…
Mobile robots are increasingly utilized in agriculture to automate labor-intensive tasks such as weeding, sowing, harvesting and soil analysis. Recently, agricultural robots have been developed to det…
Background and objective: Hybrid automated insulin delivery (hAID) systems represent the most advanced therapy for type 1 diabetes (T1D). Current systems rely on linear or linearized models of glucose…
Most engineered pilings require substantially more force to be driven into the ground than they can resist during extraction. This requires relatively heavy equipment for insertion, which is problemat…
Social robots like Moxie are designed to form strong emotional bonds with children, but their abrupt discontinuation can cause significant struggles and distress to children. When these services end, …
The transition to a fully decarbonised electricity system depends on integrating new technologies that ensure reliability alongside sustainability. However, missing risk markets hinder investment in r…
