• Abstract: We propose to learn to generate grasping motion for manipulation with a dexterous hand using implicit functions. With continuous time inputs, the model can generate a continuous and smooth grasping plan. We name the proposed model Continuous Grasping Function (CGF). CGF is learned via generative modeling with a Conditional Variational Autoencoder using 3D human demonstrations. We will first convert the large-scale human-object interaction trajectories to robot demonstrations via motion retargeting, and then use these demonstrations to train CGF. During inference, we perform sampling with CGF to generate different grasping plans in the simulator and select the successful ones to transfer to the real robot. By training on diverse human data, our CGF allows generalization to manipulate multiple objects. Compared to previous planning algorithms, CGF is more efficient and achieves significant improvement on success rate when transferred to grasping with the real Allegro Hand.

• 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.

  Existing algorithms directly generate the full sequence which is expensive and prone to errors. We propose KeyMotion, that generates plausible human motion sequences corresponding to input text. We use a Variationalcoder (VAE) with Kullback-Leibler regularization to project the Autoencoder into a latent space. For the reverse diffusion, we propose a novel Parallel Skip Transformer that performs cross-modal attention between the design latents and text condition.
