• Abstract: Human-AI shared control allows human to interact and collaborate with AI to accomplish control tasks in complex environments. Previous Reinforcement Learning (RL) methods attempt the goal-conditioned design to achieve human-controllable policies at the cost of redesigning the reward function and training paradigm. Inspired by the neuroscience approach to investigate the motor cortex in primates, we develop a simple yet effective frequency-based approach called \textit{Policy Dissection} to align the intermediate representation of the learned neural controller with the kinematic attributes of the agent behavior. Without modifying the neural controller or retraining the model, the proposed approach can convert a given RL-trained policy into a human-interactive policy. We evaluate the proposed approach on the RL tasks of autonomous driving and locomotion. The experiments show that human-AI shared control achieved by Policy Dissection in driving task can substantially improve the performance and safety in unseen traffic scenes. With human in the loop, the locomotion robots also exhibit versatile controllable motion skills even though they are only trained to move forward. Our results suggest the promising direction of implementing human-AI shared autonomy through interpreting the learned representation of the autonomous agents. Demo video and code will be made available at https://metadriverse.github.io/policydissect.

• Hand-Object Interaction Pretraining from Videos [77.92637809322231]
  We learn general robot manipulation priors from 3D hand-object interaction trajectories. We do so by sharing both the human hand and the manipulated object in 3D space and human motions to robot actions. We empirically demonstrate that finetuning this policy, with both reinforcement learning (RL) and behavior cloning (BC), enables sample-efficient adaptation to downstream tasks and simultaneously improves robustness and generalizability compared to prior approaches.

  Key limitation of learned robot control policies is their inability to generalize outside their training data. Recent works on vision-language-action models (VLAs) have shown that the use of large, internet pre-trained vision-language models can substantially improve their robustness and generalization ability. We introduce Embodied Chain-of-Thought Reasoning (ECoT) for VLAs, in which we train VLAs to perform multiple steps of reasoning about plans, sub-tasks, motions, and visually grounded features before predicting the robot action.
