Generative modeling is widely used for producing diverse objects from complex, multimodal distributions. However, its expressivity does not, in general, come with formal guarantees that the generated objects satisfy hard constraints or requirements. In multi-agent generation, this problem becomes more challenging becau...
Action chunking provides temporal abstraction in reinforcement learning by selecting short action sequences instead of individual actions, but many existing approaches face two limitations in high-dimensional robotic control. First, many rely on value functions over action chunks, which can be difficult to learn as act...
Cloud robotics is an innovative field that leverages cloud technologies-including cloud computing (CC), cloud storage, deep learning, big data, and the Internet of Things to augment the capabilities of robotics. This integration facilitates the execution of robotic functions through a converged infrastructure and share...
We present PAC-MAN, a perception-aware CBF-RL framework that couples control-barrier safety with deployment-realistic onboard sensing for whole-body humanoid dodgeball. The deployed policy sees the ball only as segmentation-masked depth from a head-mounted camera, while training-time CBF guidance represents clearance t...

Temporal Self-Imitation Learning (TSIL), a reinforcement learning framework that mines temporally efficient successful trajectories generated during learning and converts them into reusable supervision for future policy improvement, is introduced.
Humanoid loco-manipulation benefits from one controller to coordinate locomotion, arm movements, and fall recovery. These behaviors are difficult to learn together from scratch because they require different skills and objectives. We present HANDOFF, a training architecture that distills motion-tracking, locomotion, an...
While household robots are often evaluated based on task completion, everyday domestic environments involve value-conflicting situations where robots are expected to choose actions that prioritize diverse values such as human autonomy, efficiency, or social appropriateness. Yet, there are no benchmarks for evaluating r...
EvoScene-VLA is introduced, which uses compact scene tokens to unify within-chunk scene prediction, cross-chunk state propagation, and observation-based correction and shows that a recurrent scene state alone does not necessarily improve performance, whereas state propagation can improve control when combined with geom...
This work measures both directions, repair and corruption, of the reasoning chain, a working control surface that moves the robot, repairing behaviour when the text is right and corrupting it when the text is wrong.
Experimental results show that ContactExplorer substantially improves sample efficiency and success rates over existing exploration methods, that it reduces the need for task-specific priors, and that it remains effective across hand embodiments and transfers to the real world.
A modular manipulation framework that separates high-level planning from low-level control and coupling grounded plan generation with a 3D-based execution policy, this framework achieves state-of-the-art performance on the challenging GemBench benchmark and demonstrates promising transfer to real robots.
Proactive Instance Navigation with Comparative Judgment (ProCompNav), a two-stage framework that first constructs a candidate pool and then identifies the target through Recursive Comparative Judgment (RCJ), is proposed.

A new system identifies and corrects unreliable object descriptions stored in a robot’s memory, improving the robot’s ability to interact with its environment.
Discover Gemini 4 Argon for robotics: leading the ERQA benchmark with physical reasoning, zero-shot control, Real2Sim, and agentic workflows.
Robots are getting smarter, but how can their hardware match that growth? New Microsoft Research findings show that moving AI inference beyond the robot can improve task success, boost efficiency, and support more advanced physical AI workloads. The post Offloaded inference for real-world physical AI robotics appeared first on Microsoft Research.
