If you're at CoRL and are interested in RL learning on real robots, I highly recommend Jiaheng's talk. It's a very nice result! A simulator is used to generate an abstract action space, but then all the experiential learning is done in the real world.
Looking forward to presenting SLAC at #CoRL2025, and as an oral spotlight at the humanoid dexterous manipulation workshop! Our code is now available at https://t.co/JTBYAYBXgU. In addition, I will help present SPARTA (led by Priyanka) on object state manipulation, and RoboSSM

We hope this will be super useful for the social navigation community!
[1/8] New social navigation paper + benchmark: SocialNav-SUB 🚶🤖 Recent work puts VLMs on robots for navigation, but can they really interpret scenes and extract key details for social navigation? 🔎 https://t.co/2rlcIQpf6h
