The significant differences in the physical properties of air and water pose a substantial challenge for the development of hybrid aerial-aquatic vehicle (HAAV), which leading to increased prototype size, heavier thrusters, and reduced efficiency or under-actuation in one of the mediums. This letter introduces “WuKong”, a HAAV with a simple structure, compact size, and high maneuverability. WuKong has a maximum width of only 300 mm in one dimension, with 2.48 thrust-to-weight ratio. Its operational range spans 20 m in the air and 3 m underwater, enabling seamless cross-domain maneuvers. These capabilities are attributed to the use of separate thrusters for aerial and aquatic, in conjunction with the proposed cross-domain hybrid control framework, and the incremental nonlinear dynamic inversion (INDI)-based underwater attitude control law. Through simulations and field experiments, WuKong's cross-domain transition capability and the underwater maneuverability performance are demonstrated. Our development provides a practical solution for HAAV applications and offers a platform for subsequent HAAV collaborative tasks.
空气和水在物理性质上的显著差异给混合式空水交通工具(HAAV)的发展带来了巨大的挑战,这将导致原型尺寸的增加,推进器的重量增加,以及其中一种介质的效率降低或驱动不足。这封信介绍了一种结构简单、体积紧凑、机动性高的HAAV“悟空”。“悟空”在一维上的最大宽度只有300毫米,推重比2.48。其作战范围为空中20米,水下3米,可实现无缝跨域机动。这些能力归功于在空中和水中使用单独的推进器,结合所提出的跨域混合控制框架和基于增量非线性动态反演(INDI)的水下姿态控制律。通过仿真和现场试验,验证了“悟空”的跨域过渡能力和水下机动性能。我们的开发为HAAV应用提供了一个实用的解决方案,并为后续的HAAV协作任务提供了一个平台。

Standing and sitting are basic tasks that become increasingly difficult with age or frailty. Assisting these movements using humanoid robots is a complex challenge, particularly in determining where and how much force the robot should apply to effectively support the human's dynamic motions. In this letter, we propose a method to compute assistive forces directly from the human's dynamic balance, using criteria typically employed in humanoid robots. Specifically, we map humanoid dynamic balance metrics onto human motion to calculate the forces required to stabilize the human's current posture. These forces are then applied at the appropriate locations on the human body by the humanoid. Our approach combines the variable height 3D divergent component of motion with gravito-inertial wrench cones to define a 3D balance region. Using centroidal feedback, we compute the required assistance force to maintain balance and distribute the resulting wrenches across the human's body using a humanoid robot dynamically balanced according to the same criteria. We demonstrate the effectiveness of this framework through both simulations and experiments, where a humanoid assists a person in sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit motions, with the person wearing an age-simulation suit to emulate frailty.
站着和坐着是最基本的活动,但随着年龄的增长和身体的虚弱,这些活动会变得越来越困难。使用人形机器人辅助这些运动是一个复杂的挑战,特别是在确定机器人应该在哪里以及施加多大的力来有效地支持人类的动态运动。在这封信中,我们提出了一种直接从人的动态平衡计算辅助力的方法,使用人形机器人通常采用的标准。具体来说,我们将类人动态平衡指标映射到人体运动中,以计算稳定人体当前姿势所需的力。然后将这些力应用于人形机器人在人体上的适当位置。我们的方法结合了运动的变高度三维发散分量和重力惯性扳手锥来定义三维平衡区域。使用质心反馈,我们计算所需的辅助力来保持平衡,并根据相同的标准使用动态平衡的仿人机器人将产生的扳手分布在人体上。我们通过模拟和实验证明了这个框架的有效性,其中一个人形机器人帮助一个人进行坐到站和站到坐的运动,这个人穿着年龄模拟服来模拟虚弱。

We consider a motion planning problem for vehicles with curvature constraints, such as minimum turn radius, and a secondary cost such as resource cost. Traditional motion planning problems address the secondary cost as a soft constraint within the cost function. In the current paper, we take a different approach and treat this as a constraint, separate from the primary objective cost. Specifically, the integrated resource cost along the vehicle's path is constrained to be within a pre-specified limit, which is separate from the main travel cost being optimized. This approach is suitable for applications such as fire fighting, where finding the paths of minimum cost or time is essential while limiting exposure to the high heat areas. To address the resource constraints, we introduce the Hybrid Theta$^*$ (H$boldsymbol{Theta }^*$) algorithm. This is an incremental sampling based search algorithm and draws inspiration from labeling algorithms used in resource constrained shortest path problems. We present two versions of the (H$boldsymbol{Theta }^*$) algorithm, label-select and focal-select; these variants differs in how labels to be expanded are selected from the processing queue. The proposed algorithms significantly outperform the baseline methods that uses the traditional motion planning algorithms in terms of both the success rate and the solution cost. We validate the algorithms through computational experiments and real-world flight testing with on-board computation.
考虑具有曲率约束(如最小转弯半径)和二次成本(如资源成本)的车辆运动规划问题。传统的运动规划问题将二次成本作为成本函数中的软约束。在当前的论文中,我们采取了不同的方法,并将其视为约束,与主要目标成本分开。具体而言,车辆路径上的综合资源成本被约束在预定的限制范围内,与被优化的主要出行成本是分开的。这种方法适用于消防等应用,在这些应用中,寻找成本最低或时间最短的路径至关重要,同时限制暴露在高热区域。为了解决资源约束问题,我们引入了Hybrid Theta$^*$ (H$boldsymbol{Theta}^*$)算法。这是一种基于增量采样的搜索算法,其灵感来自于资源受限最短路径问题中使用的标记算法。我们提出了两个版本的(H$boldsymbol{Theta}^*$)算法,标签选择和焦点选择;这些变体的不同之处在于如何从处理队列中选择要展开的标签。本文提出的算法在成功率和求解成本方面都明显优于使用传统运动规划算法的基线方法。通过计算实验和实际飞行试验验证了算法的有效性。

Taxonomy-Aware Continual Semantic Segmentation in Hyperbolic Spaces for Open-World Perception 面向开放世界感知的双曲空间分类感知连续语义分割

Semantic segmentation models are typically trained on a fixed set of classes, limiting their applicability in open-world scenarios. Class-incremental semantic segmentation aims to update models with emerging new classes while preventing catastrophic forgetting of previously learned ones. However, existing methods impose strict rigidity on old classes, reducing their effectiveness in learning new incremental classes. In this work, we propose Taxonomy-Oriented Poincaré-regularized Incremental-Class Segmentation (TOPICS) that learns feature embeddings in hyperbolic space following explicit taxonomy-tree structures. This supervision provides plasticity for old classes, updating ancestors based on new classes while integrating new classes at fitting positions. Additionally, we maintain implicit class relational constraints on the geometric basis of the Poincaré ball. This ensures that the latent space can continuously adapt to new constraints while maintaining a robust structure to combat catastrophic forgetting. We also establish eight realistic incremental learning protocols for autonomous driving scenarios, where novel classes can originate from known classes or the background. Extensive evaluations of TOPICS on the Cityscapes and Mapillary Vistas 2.0 benchmarks demonstrate that it achieves state-of-the-art performance.
语义分割模型通常是在一组固定的类上训练的,这限制了它们在开放世界场景中的适用性。类增量语义分割旨在用新出现的类更新模型,同时防止先前学习的类的灾难性遗忘。然而,现有的方法对旧的课程施加了严格的刚性,降低了他们在学习新的增量课程时的有效性。在这项工作中,我们提出了面向分类法的poincar -正则化增量类分割(TOPICS),它根据明确的分类法树结构学习双曲空间中的特征嵌入。这种监督为旧类提供了可塑性,可以基于新类更新祖先类,同时在合适的位置集成新类。此外,我们在poincarcarcarve球的几何基础上保持隐式类关系约束。这确保了潜在空间可以不断地适应新的限制,同时保持一个强大的结构来对抗灾难性的遗忘。我们还为自动驾驶场景建立了八种现实的增量学习协议,其中新的课程可以来自已知的课程或背景。对城市景观和Mapillary远景2.0基准的广泛评估表明,它达到了最先进的性能。

Positive-Unlabeled Constraint Learning for Inferring Nonlinear Continuous Constraints Functions From Expert Demonstrations 从专家论证中推断非线性连续约束函数的正无标记约束学习

Planning for diverse real-world robotic tasks necessitates to know and write all constraints. However, instances exist where these constraints are either unknown or challenging to specify accurately. A possible solution is to infer the unknown constraints from expert demonstration. This letter presents a novel two-step Positive-Unlabeled Constraint Learning (PUCL) algorithm to infer a continuous constraint function from demonstrations, without requiring prior knowledge of the true constraint parameterization or environmental model as existing works. We treat all data in demonstrations as positive (feasible) data, and learn a control policy to generate potentially infeasible trajectories, which serve as unlabeled data. The proposed two-step learning framework first identifies reliable infeasible data using a distance metric, and secondly learns a binary feasibility classifier (i.e., constraint function) from the feasible demonstrations and reliable infeasible data. The proposed method is flexible to learn complex-shaped constraint boundary and will not mistakenly classify demonstrations as infeasible as previous methods. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified in four constrained environments, using a networked policy or a dynamical system policy. It successfully infers the continuous nonlinear constraints and outperforms other baseline methods in terms of constraint accuracy and policy safety.
规划各种现实世界的机器人任务需要了解并编写所有约束条件。然而,在某些情况下,这些约束要么是未知的,要么是难以准确指定的。一种可能的解决方案是通过专家论证来推断未知约束。这封信提出了一种新的两步积极无标记约束学习(PUCL)算法,可以从演示中推断连续约束函数,而不需要像现有作品那样事先了解真正的约束参数化或环境模型。我们将演示中的所有数据视为正(可行)数据,并学习一种控制策略来生成潜在的不可行轨迹,这些轨迹作为未标记数据。提出的两步学习框架首先使用距离度量识别可靠的不可行数据,然后从可行演示和可靠的不可行数据中学习二元可行性分类器(即约束函数)。该方法可以灵活地学习复杂形状的约束边界,并且不会像以前的方法那样错误地将演示归类为不可行的。在网络策略和动态系统策略四种约束环境下验证了该方法的有效性。该方法成功地推导出连续非线性约束,在约束精度和策略安全性方面优于其他基线方法。

This letter introduces a novel linear actuator with a high extension ratio, achieved through a unique planar transforming linkage mechanism (TLM) that serves as an articulated lead screw. This mechanism forms a rigid beam when extended and compactly coils when not in use, eliminating the need for an interlocking mechanism and thereby enhancing durability and reducing maintenance costs. The paper also discusses the comprehensive design of the linear actuator, including the articulated lead screw and driving transformation mechanism, leveraging the kinematic properties of the planar TLM. A proof-of-concept prototype is manufactured and assessed for its load capacity, accuracy, repeatability, and efficiency. Unlike conventional actuators constrained by a lower extension ratio, the proposed actuator's compactness and transverse load resilience make it ideal for space-constrained applications such as medical devices, space robotics, and factory automation. Overall, the proposed linear actuator represents a significant advancement in the field of linear actuators and has the potential to enable a wide array of applications that were previously unfeasible with conventional designs.
本文介绍了一种具有高延伸比的新型线性执行器,该执行器通过独特的平面变换连杆机构(TLM)实现,该机构可作为铰接丝杠。该机构在伸展时形成刚性梁,在不使用时形成紧凑的线圈,消除了对联锁机构的需求,从而提高了耐用性并降低了维护成本。利用平面TLM的运动特性,对直线执行机构进行了综合设计,包括铰接丝杠和驱动变换机构。制造概念验证原型并评估其负载能力,准确性,可重复性和效率。与受较低延伸比限制的传统执行器不同,所提出的执行器的紧凑性和横向负载弹性使其成为空间受限应用的理想选择,如医疗设备,空间机器人和工厂自动化。总体而言,所提出的线性执行器代表了线性执行器领域的重大进步,并且有可能实现以前传统设计无法实现的广泛应用。

This study introduces a robotic high-speed scooping technique, an effective solution for rapidly picking thin objects from a hard support surface. High-speed scooping involves dynamic and impactful manipulation using a two-fingered gripper. One digit dynamically penetrates beneath the object lying on a support surface while the other digit helps form a cage and subsequently secures a firm grip. This entire process is executed within a fractional-second time frame. We develop a theoretical model of manipulation for high-speed scooping and implement it using our custom direct-drive gripper designed for enhanced environment-adaptability. Extensive experiments verify the viability of our high-speed scooping approach.
本研究介绍了一种机器人高速抓取技术,这是一种从坚硬的支撑表面快速抓取薄物体的有效解决方案。高速抓取涉及动态和有效的操作,使用一个双指抓手。一根手指动态地穿透位于支撑表面上的物体下方,而另一根手指则帮助形成一个笼子,并随后牢牢抓住物体。整个过程在几分之一秒的时间框架内执行。我们开发了一种高速抓取操作的理论模型,并使用我们为增强环境适应性而设计的定制直接驱动抓取器来实现它。大量的实验验证了我们高速挖掘方法的可行性。
