Surviving the paper deluge: a one-year study in learning from demonstration
2+ hour, 5+ min ago (916+ words) Robohub Surviving the paper deluge: a one-year study in learning from demonstration With the explosion of robotics research, staying current in fields like Learning from Demonstration (LfD) is a monumental challenge. Is AI the solution to the “paper deluge,” or…...
Interactive world simulator for robot policy training and evaluation
1+ week, 2+ day ago (335+ words) A natural question is whether we can replace some of this real-robot work with a simulator. Classical physics-based simulators are powerful, but building one for a new task means manually modeling geometries, contacts, friction, and deformation, and the resulting simulator…...

RoboChem Flex: democratisation of the autonomous synthesis robot
1+ mon, 3+ week ago (607+ words) Robohub RoboChem Flex: democratisation of the autonomous synthesis robot In a paper published in Nature Synthesis, researchers led by Professor Timothy Noël of the University of Amsterdam’s Van ’t Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences present an advance in autonomous laboratory…...
Gradient-based planning for world models at longer horizons
3+ mon, 1+ day ago (1695+ words) By Michael Psenka, Mike Rabbat, Aditi Krishnapriyan, Yann LeCun, Amir Bar Large, learned world models are becoming increasingly capable. They can predict long sequences of future observations in high-dimensional visual spaces and generalize across tasks in ways that were difficult…...
What I’ve learned from 25 years of automated science, and what the future holds: an interview with Ross King
3+ mon, 2+ week ago (1586+ words) Automated science is a really exciting area, and it feels like everyone’s talking about it at the moment – e.g. AlphaFold sharing the 2024 Nobel Prize. But you’ve been working in this field for many years now. In 2009 you developed Adam,…...
Reversible, detachable robotic hand redefines dexterity
5+ mon, 1+ week ago (224+ words) 2025 LASA/CREATE/EPFL CC BY SA. With its opposable thumb, multiple joints and gripping skin, human hands are often considered to be the pinnacle of dexterity, and many robotic hands are designed in their image. But having been shaped by…...
Robots to navigate hiking trails
6+ mon, 2+ week ago (337+ words) Autonomous trail navigation is not just a fun robotics problem; it has potential for real-world impact. In the United States alone, there are over 193,500 miles of trails on federal lands, with many more managed by state and local agencies. Millions…...
Generations in Dialogue: Multi-agent systems and human-AI interaction with Professor Manuela Veloso
8+ mon, 1+ week ago (750+ words) In the first episode of this new series from AAAI, host Ella Lan chats to Professor Manuela Veloso about her research journey and path into AI, the history and evolution of AI research,... Generations in Dialogue: Multi-agent systems and human-AI…...
