How do humans move over different terrain? And can robots do the same? Great work everyone involved!
We are releasing EgoHTR, a dataset with both human motions and terrain references, accepted @corl_conf. 📖 Paper: lnkd.in/eeepUefs 🌐 Project Page: egohtr.github.io • 55 scene-aligned sequences • 150k+ frames • rough-terrain environments • multi-modal 3D scene

Representation matters in RL! In this #ICLR2026 paper we study SO(3) action representations. @VectorInst @TU_Muenchen
Our work, "A Primer on SO(3) Action Representations in Deep Reinforcement Learning," was accepted to #ICLR2026! We provide a systematic study of action representation choices in RL, showing that they fundamentally impact training stability and performance. #Robotics #AI #RL

Fine-tuning #VLAs on new tasks overwrites prior knowledge, making long-term autonomy infeasible. We introduce CLARE, an exemplar-free continual learning framework that enables VLAs to learn new tasks without catastrophic forgetting. Website: tum-lsy.github.io/clare 1/9

What actions are safe for a robot to take? We show how robots can derive safe actions from perception, semantic understanding, and the reasoning capabilities of LLMs—plus a touch of control theory magic. ✨ The goal? Systems that not only interpret but also act responsibly.
How can robots act with common-sense safety in mind? Our new framework combines 3D mapping, LLM reasoning, and safety filters to avoid semantically unsafe actions like carrying a cup of coffee over a laptop. (1/5) #Robotics #AI #RobotSafety #LLM #AIresearch

I'm very much looking forward to participating in this newly established conference at the interface of AI and space.
📣 The first edition of @esa's & #IAA's #SPAICE2024 #conference is coming closer, and preparations are in full swing. In fact, #registration will close soon (2 September 2024)! The conference bridges between a broad selection of #AI techniques and #space domains!
