• Abstract summary: We extract highly localized actionable information related to elementary actions such as pushing or pulling for articulated objects with movable parts. We propose a learning-from-interaction framework with an online data sampling strategy that allows us to train the network in simulation. Our learned models even transfer to real-world data.

• Abstract: One of the fundamental goals of visual perception is to allow agents to meaningfully interact with their environment. In this paper, we take a step towards that long-term goal -- we extract highly localized actionable information related to elementary actions such as pushing or pulling for articulated objects with movable parts. For example, given a drawer, our network predicts that applying a pulling force on the handle opens the drawer. We propose, discuss, and evaluate novel network architectures that given image and depth data, predict the set of actions possible at each pixel, and the regions over articulated parts that are likely to move under the force. We propose a learning-from-interaction framework with an online data sampling strategy that allows us to train the network in simulation (SAPIEN) and generalizes across categories. But more importantly, our learned models even transfer to real-world data. Check the project website for the code and data release.

  We investigate the minimal data requirements and architectural adaptations necessary to achieve robust closed-loop performance with vision-based control policies. Our findings are synthesized in Flex (Fly-lexically), a framework that uses pre-trained Vision Language Models (VLMs) as frozen patch-wise feature extractors. We demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach on quadrotor fly-to-target tasks, where agents trained via behavior cloning successfully generalize to real-world scenes.

  Articulated object manipulation requires precise object interaction, where the object's axis must be carefully considered. Previous research employed interactive perception for manipulating articulated objects, but typically, open-loop approaches often suffer from overlooking the interaction dynamics. We present a closed-loop pipeline integrating interactive perception with online axis estimation from segmented 3D point clouds.

  Affordance grounding refers to the task of finding the area of an object with which one can interact. Much of the knowledge is hidden and beyond the image content with the supervised labels from a limited training set. We make an attempt to improve the generalization capability of the current affordance grounding by taking the advantage of the rich world, abstract, and human-object-interaction knowledge.

  Given a 3D object, kinematic motion prediction aims to identify the mobile parts as well as the corresponding motion parameters. We propose a graph neural network to learn the map between hierarchical part-level segmentation and mobile parts parameters. The network predictions yield a large scale of 3D objects with pseudo labeled mobility information.

  We propose a new self-supervised method for pre-training the backbone of deep perception models operating on point clouds. The core idea is to train the model on a pretext task which is the reconstruction of the surface on which the 3D points are sampled. The intuition is that if the network is able to reconstruct the scene surface, given only sparse input points, then it probably also captures some fragments of semantic information.

  We introduce an architecture based on self-attention and Convolutional Networks to improve human action detection in video. Our model aids explainability by visualizing the learned context as an attention map, even for actions and objects unseen during training. Experimental results show that our contextualized approach outperforms a baseline action detection approach by more than 2 points in Video-mAP.
