Abstract:  Global localization is essential for the smooth navigation of autonomous vehicles. To obtain accurate vehicle states, on-board localization systems typically rely on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) modules for consistent and reliable global positioning. However, GNSS signals can be obstructed by natural or artificial barriers, leading to temporary system failures and degraded state estimation. On the [...]

Abstract:  Generalist robots need to learn a wide variety of skills to perform diverse tasks across multiple environments. Current robot training pipelines rely on humans to either provide kinesthetic demonstrations or program simulation environments with manually-designed reward functions for reinforcement learning. Such human involvement is an important bottleneck towards scaling up robot learning across diverse [...]
