3D Robot Vision for Structured World Understanding: A Physics and Symmetry Perspective
Category: Lunar Lab Robotics SeminarTitle: 3D Robot Vision for Structured World Understanding: A Physics and Symmetry Perspective Abstract: Deploying robots in diverse real-world environments is a fundamental challenge. While recent AI advances are impressive, robots still struggle to generalize. I argue that a key missing piece in embodied intelligence is the structured understanding of the world: how geometries compose,…

On the Use of Samples for Effortless Certifiable Optimization
Category: Lunar Lab Robotics SeminarTitle: On the Use of Samples for Effortless Certifiable Optimization Abstract: A possibly surprising fact is that most optimization problems in robotics, although non-convex, can be solved to global optimality, sometimes with speeds on par with efficient local solvers. Indeed, many instances of problems such as simultaneous localization and mapping, continuous-time state estimation, and optimal…
