Evidence-Gated Regularization (EGR) is proposed, a modality-agnostic training objective that introduces zero inference-time overhead and derives a per-frame and per-sensor task-relevance signal to gate two state-conditional consistency objectives: invariance on low-evidence sensors, and single-sensor sufficiency on hig...

Wildlife field operations demand efficient parallel deployment methods to identify and interact with specific individuals, enabling simultaneous collective behavioral analysis, and health and safety interventions. Previous robotics solutions approach the problem from the herd perspective, or are manually operated and l...

Empirical findings show that, despite increased model scale and enhanced general reasoning capabilities, successive VLM generations do not consistently achieve better driving performance, and highlight the need for domain-specific adaptation to improve the safety of VLM-based autonomous driving systems.

This paper presents a low-cost, open experimental platform for research in end-to-end autonomous driving with miniature Ackermann vehicles. The platform combines a physical vehicle, a printed urban track, data collection tools, trajectory registration, and a Webots digital twin, enabling controlled experiments that con...

This paper proposes AdaRoboVLG, a task-adaptive Vision-Language-Grasp (VLG) framework that supports generalizable grasp synthesis across different robotic hands. Unlike existing VLG methods that tightly couple foundation models with end-to-end grasp policies, AdaRoboVLG learns an efficient generalizable base policy tha...

Reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) has emerged as a powerful yet sample-inefficient approach for learning reward models from human preferences, making active learning a critical component in synthesizing informative preference queries. However, effective uncertainty quantification required for active lea...
This work treats catalogue photography as a useful cold start rather than a deployment-ready training domain, and provides empirical baselines and an evaluation protocol for catalogue-to-field transfer in precision tool manufacturing.

GraFT is introduced, a training-free framework that supplies the missing 3D structure through a compact, easily maintained 3D scene graph (3DSG) and provides three spatial reasoning capabilities: deterministic geometry through symbolic tools, allocentric layout through a bird's-eye-view (BEV) rendering, and visual-attr...

Contact-rich loco-manipulation requires a bridge between semantic action generation and physical interaction control. Existing Vision-language-action (VLA) models generate task-level actions from visual and linguistic observations, but cannot interpret the physical interactions induced by those actions. While the whole...

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.
