ChainSplat: A Physics-Inspired Screw-Theoretic Model for Learning Deformable Linear Object Dynamics from Multi-View RGB Videos
Identifying the underlying dynamics and 3D geometry of deformable linear objects (DLOs), such as cables, ropes, and hoses, is essential for accurate robotic manipulation, but remains challenging due to their high-dimensional configuration spaces and diverse behaviors arising from varying material properties. Existing m...
