Optimal Control for legged robots has gone through a paradigm shift from position-based to torque-based control, owing to the latter's compliant and robust nature. In parallel to this shift, the community has also turned to Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) as a promising approach to directly learn locomotion policies for complex real-life tasks. However, most end-to-end DRL approaches still operate in position space, mainly because learning in torque space is often sample-inefficient and does not consistently converge to natural gaits. To address these challenges, we introduce Decaying Action Priors (DecAP), a novel three-stage framework to learn and deploy torque policies for legged locomotion. In the first stage, we generate our own imitation data by training a position policy, eliminating the need for expert knowledge in designing optimal controllers. The second stage incorporates decaying action priors to enhance the exploration of torque-based policies aided by imitation rewards. We show that our approach consistently outperforms imitation learning alone and is significantly robust to the scaling of these rewards. Finally, our third stage facilitates safe sim-to-real transfer by directly deploying our learned torques, alongside low-gain PID control from our trained position policy. We demonstrate the generality of our approach by training torque-based locomotion policies for a biped, a quadruped, and a hexapod robot in simulation, and experimentally demonstrate our learned policies on a quadruped (Unitree Go1).

Dexterous robotic manipulation in unstructured environments can aid in everyday tasks such as cleaning and caretaking. Anthropomorphic robotic hands are highly dexterous and theoretically well-suited for working in human domains, but their complex designs and dynamics often make them difficult to control. By contrast, parallel-jaw grippers are easy to control and are used extensively in industrial applications, but they lack the dexterity for various kinds of grasps and in-hand manipulations. In this work, we present DELTAHANDS, a synergistic dexterous hand framework with Delta robots. The DELTAHANDS are soft, easy to reconfigure, simple to manufacture with low-cost off-the-shelf materials, and possess high degrees of freedom that can be easily controlled. DELTAHANDS' dexterity can be adjusted for different applications by leveraging actuation synergies, which can further reduce the control complexity, overall cost, and energy consumption. We characterize the Delta robots' kinematics accuracy, force profiles, and workspace range to assist with hand design. Finally, we evaluate the versatility of DELTAHANDS by grasping a diverse set of objects and by using teleoperation to complete three dexterous manipulation tasks: cloth folding, cap opening, and cable arrangement.

This paper summarizes the progress in developing a rugged, low-cost, automated ground cone robot network capable of traffic delineation at lane-level precision. A holonomic omnidirectional base with a traffic delineator was developed to allow flexibility in initialization. RTK GPS was utilized to reduce minimum position error to 2 centimeters. Due to recent developments, the cost of the platform is now less than $1,600. To minimize the effects of GPS-denied environments, wheel encoders and an Extended Kalman Filter were implemented to maintain lane-level accuracy during operation and a maximum error of 1.97 meters through 50 meters with little to no GPS signal. Future work includes increasing the operational speed of the platforms, incorporating lanelet information for path planning, and cross-platform estimation.

Semantic segmentation in adverse weather scenarios is a critical task for autonomous driving systems. While foundation models have shown promise, the need for specialized adaptors becomes evident for handling more challenging scenarios. We introduce DiffPrompter, a novel differentiable visual and latent prompting mechanism aimed at expanding the learning capabilities of existing adaptors in foundation models. Our proposed $\nabla$HFC image processing block excels particularly in adverse weather conditions, where conventional methods often fall short. Furthermore, we investigate the advantages of jointly training visual and latent prompts, demonstrating that this combined approach significantly enhances performance in out-of-distribution scenarios. Our differentiable visual prompts leverage parallel and series architectures to generate prompts, effectively improving object segmentation tasks in adverse conditions. Through a comprehensive series of experiments and evaluations, we provide empirical evidence to support the efficacy of our approach. Project page at //diffprompter.github.io.

Neural Combinatorial Optimization has been researched actively in the last eight years. Even though many of the proposed Machine Learning based approaches are compared on the same datasets, the evaluation protocol exhibits essential flaws and the selection of baselines often neglects State-of-the-Art Operations Research approaches. To improve on both of these shortcomings, we propose the Routing Arena, a benchmark suite for Routing Problems that provides a seamless integration of consistent evaluation and the provision of baselines and benchmarks prevalent in the Machine Learning- and Operations Research field. The proposed evaluation protocol considers the two most important evaluation cases for different applications: First, the solution quality for an a priori fixed time budget and secondly the anytime performance of the respective methods. By setting the solution trajectory in perspective to a Best Known Solution and a Base Solver's solutions trajectory, we furthermore propose the Weighted Relative Average Performance (WRAP), a novel evaluation metric that quantifies the often claimed runtime efficiency of Neural Routing Solvers. A comprehensive first experimental evaluation demonstrates that the most recent Operations Research solvers generate state-of-the-art results in terms of solution quality and runtime efficiency when it comes to the vehicle routing problem. Nevertheless, some findings highlight the advantages of neural approaches and motivate a shift in how neural solvers should be conceptualized.

Connected Medical Devices (CMDs) have a large impact on patients as they allow them to lead a more normal life. Any malfunction could not only remove the health benefits the CMDs provide, they could also cause further harm to the patient. Due to this, there are many safety regulations which must be adhered to prior to a CMD entering the market. However, while many detailed safety regulations exist, there are a fundamental lack of cybersecurity frameworks applicable to CMDs. While there are recent regulations which aim to enforce cybersecurity practices, they are vague and do not contain the concrete steps necessary to implement cybersecurity. This paper aims to fill that gap by describing a framework, CyMed, to be used by vendors and ens-users, which contains concrete measures to improve the resilience of CMDs against cyber attack. The CyMed framework is subsequently evaluated based on practical tests as well as expert interviews.

AI alignment is about ensuring AI systems only pursue goals and activities that are beneficial to humans. Most of the current approach to AI alignment is to learn what humans value from their behavioural data. This paper proposes a different way of looking at the notion of alignment, namely by introducing AI Alignment Dialogues: dialogues with which users and agents try to achieve and maintain alignment via interaction. We argue that alignment dialogues have a number of advantages in comparison to data-driven approaches, especially for behaviour support agents, which aim to support users in achieving their desired future behaviours rather than their current behaviours. The advantages of alignment dialogues include allowing the users to directly convey higher-level concepts to the agent, and making the agent more transparent and trustworthy. In this paper we outline the concept and high-level structure of alignment dialogues. Moreover, we conducted a qualitative focus group user study from which we developed a model that describes how alignment dialogues affect users, and created design suggestions for AI alignment dialogues. Through this we establish foundations for AI alignment dialogues and shed light on what requires further development and research.

Soft-growing robots are innovative devices that feature plant-inspired growth to navigate environments. Thanks to their embodied intelligence of adapting to their surroundings and the latest innovation in actuation and manufacturing, it is possible to employ them for specific manipulation tasks. The applications of these devices include exploration of delicate/dangerous environments, manipulation of items, or assistance in domestic environments. This work presents a novel approach for design optimization of soft-growing robots, which will be used prior to manufacturing to suggest engineers -- or robot designer enthusiasts -- the optimal dimension of the robot to be built for solving a specific task. I modeled the design process as a multi-objective optimization problem, in which I optimize the kinematic chain of a soft manipulator to reach targets and avoid unnecessary overuse of material and resources. The method exploits the advantages of population-based optimization algorithms, in particular evolutionary algorithms, to transform the problem from multi-objective into a single-objective thanks to an efficient mathematical formulation, the novel rank-partitioning algorithm, and obstacle avoidance integrated within the optimizer operators. I tested the proposed method on different tasks to access its optimality, which showed significant performance in solving the problem. Finally, comparative experiments showed that the proposed method works better than the one existing in the literature in terms of precision, resource consumption, and run time.

The 4D Millimeter wave (mmWave) radar is a promising technology for vehicle sensing due to its cost-effectiveness and operability in adverse weather conditions. However, the adoption of this technology has been hindered by sparsity and noise issues in radar point cloud data. This paper introduces spatial multi-representation fusion (SMURF), a novel approach to 3D object detection using a single 4D imaging radar. SMURF leverages multiple representations of radar detection points, including pillarization and density features of a multi-dimensional Gaussian mixture distribution through kernel density estimation (KDE). KDE effectively mitigates measurement inaccuracy caused by limited angular resolution and multi-path propagation of radar signals. Additionally, KDE helps alleviate point cloud sparsity by capturing density features. Experimental evaluations on View-of-Delft (VoD) and TJ4DRadSet datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and generalization ability of SMURF, outperforming recently proposed 4D imaging radar-based single-representation models. Moreover, while using 4D imaging radar only, SMURF still achieves comparable performance to the state-of-the-art 4D imaging radar and camera fusion-based method, with an increase of 1.22% in the mean average precision on bird's-eye view of TJ4DRadSet dataset and 1.32% in the 3D mean average precision on the entire annotated area of VoD dataset. Our proposed method demonstrates impressive inference time and addresses the challenges of real-time detection, with the inference time no more than 0.05 seconds for most scans on both datasets. This research highlights the benefits of 4D mmWave radar and is a strong benchmark for subsequent works regarding 3D object detection with 4D imaging radar.

ASR (automatic speech recognition) systems like Siri, Alexa, Google Voice or Cortana has become quite popular recently. One of the key techniques enabling the practical use of such systems in people's daily life is deep learning. Though deep learning in computer vision is known to be vulnerable to adversarial perturbations, little is known whether such perturbations are still valid on the practical speech recognition. In this paper, we not only demonstrate such attacks can happen in reality, but also show that the attacks can be systematically conducted. To minimize users' attention, we choose to embed the voice commands into a song, called CommandSong. In this way, the song carrying the command can spread through radio, TV or even any media player installed in the portable devices like smartphones, potentially impacting millions of users in long distance. In particular, we overcome two major challenges: minimizing the revision of a song in the process of embedding commands, and letting the CommandSong spread through the air without losing the voice "command". Our evaluation demonstrates that we can craft random songs to "carry" any commands and the modify is extremely difficult to be noticed. Specially, the physical attack that we play the CommandSongs over the air and record them can success with 94 percentage.
