• Abstract: Connected teleoperated robotic systems play a key role in ensuring operational workflows are carried out with high levels of accuracy and low margins of error. In recent years, a variety of attacks have been proposed that actively target the robot itself from the cyber domain. However, little attention has been paid to the capabilities of a passive attacker. In this work, we investigate whether an insider adversary can accurately fingerprint robot movements and operational warehousing workflows via the radio frequency side channel in a stealthy manner. Using an SVM for classification, we found that an adversary can fingerprint individual robot movements with at least 96% accuracy, increasing to near perfect accuracy when reconstructing entire warehousing workflows.

  We seek to learn a generalizable goal-conditioned policy that enables zero-shot robot manipulation. Our framework,Track2Act predicts tracks of how points in an image should move in future time-steps based on a goal. We show that this approach of combining scalably learned track prediction with a residual policy enables diverse generalizable robot manipulation.

  Eye-in-hand cameras have shown promise in enabling greater sample efficiency and generalization in vision-based robotic manipulation. Videos of humans performing tasks, on the other hand, are much cheaper to collect since they eliminate the need for expertise in robotic teleoperation. In this work, we augment narrow robotic imitation datasets with broad unlabeled human video demonstrations to greatly enhance the generalization of eye-in-hand visuomotor policies.

  Commercial and industrial deployments of robot fleets often fall back on remote human teleoperators during execution. We formalize the Interactive Fleet Learning (IFL) setting, in which multiple robots interactively query and learn from multiple human supervisors. We propose Fleet-DAgger, a family of IFL algorithms, and compare a novel Fleet-DAgger algorithm to 4 baselines in simulation.

  Recent work has shown that, in practical robot learning applications, the effects of adversarial training do not pose a fair trade-off. This work revisits the robustness-accuracy trade-off in robot learning by analyzing if recent advances in robust training methods and theory can make adversarial training suitable for real-world robot applications.

  We consider the problem of transferring a policy across two different robots with significantly different parameters such as kinematics and morphology. Existing approaches that train a new policy by matching the action or state transition distribution, including imitation learning methods, fail due to optimal action and/or state distribution being mismatched in different robots. We propose a novel method named $REvolveR$ of using continuous evolutionary models for robotic policy transfer implemented in a physics simulator.

Notably, the LSTM-based RoboMal model outperforms the other models with an accuracy of 85% and precision of 87% in 10-fold cross-validation.
