Non-Invasive Inspection of Water Canals Using Dronar

Michael Zielinski, Zhizhan Wang, Benjamin Dymond, Reza Razavian, Zhongwang Dou

Open concrete canals play a vital role in water transportation, serving as primary water infrastructure for millions of people across the Phoenix, Arizona, metro area. Over time, the concrete canals can experience a range of issues, including canal lining deformation, cracked concrete, and sediment buildup on the canal floor.

GPU-Accelerated Path-Dependent Marginal Information Gain for Autonomous Exploration

João Félix Mendes, Rodrigo Ventura, Meysam Basiri

Autonomous exploration demands that robots continuously evaluate candidate viewpoints based on their expected information gain and execution cost. Sampling-based planners estimate this gain by volumetric raycasting and, due to its computational cost, evaluate candidates under an assumption of mutual independence, ignoring the overlap between viewpoints along the same path.

ProAct-VLM: Pre-Failure Vision-Language Task Replanning with Continuous Perception Feedback

Ahmed Nader Ahmed, Omar Moured, Mughni Irfan Mohammed Abdul, Muhayy Ud Din, Irfan Hussain

Long-horizon robotic tasks are vulnerable to unexpected environmental changes that can render planned actions ineffective or unsafe. To address this, robots must detect such changes as they occur, interpret their impact, and adjust their actions accordingly.

Does Local Video Understanding Transfer Across Encounters? The EgoGears Benchmark

Yuedong Tan, Lei Qi, Yu Liu, Di Wen, Ruiping Liu, Xiaoye Wang, Yufan Chen, Junwei Zheng, Chengzhi Wu, Chen Zhang, Zhihang Chen, Haiwen Sun, Zongwei Wu, Radu Timofte, Danda Pani Paudel, Kunyu Peng

Embodied systems must make knowledge acquired during one encounter usable in another despite changes in viewpoint, motion, and illumination. Yet aggregate cross-video accuracy conflates failures of local perception with failures to preserve observation identity, establish correspondence, and compose evidence, obscuring whether local video understanding actually transfers.

Towards Spatial Perception for Heterogeneous Robot Collaboration in Subterranean Mining Environments

Mario Alberto Valdes Saucedo, Akash Patel, Christoforos Kanellakis, George Nikolakopoulos

The autonomous extraction of deep mineral deposits in abandoned underground mines is fundamentally a multi-agent integration problem. No single platform simultaneously offers the mobility to traverse kilometers of degraded drifts and the sensing payload required to characterize an ore body.

PhysWAM: Physically Consistent World Action Model for Autonomous Driving

Dhruv Parikh, Fengcheng Yu, Quankai Gao, Jiawei Yang, Junjie Ye, Maulik Bhatt, Thang Vu, Charles Ochoa, Rowan McAllister, Igor Vasiljevic, Rajgopal Kannan, Viktor Prasanna, Vitor Guizilini, Yue Wang

World-action models (WAMs) jointly predict how a scene will evolve and how an agent should act, however joint generation alone does not necessarily impose a shared geometric constraint on these predictions. We present PhysWAM, a unified world-action model for autonomous driving that co-denoises multiview video, metric depth, and ego motion within a single flow-matching transformer.

Recompositional Robotics: Cross-Domain, Open-set, and Lifelong Modularity Beyond Morphology

Steven Swanbeck, Jonathan Salfity, Corrie Van Sice, Robert Blake Anderson, Mitch Pryor

Research in modular robotics has produced capable approaches allowing a robot's morphology to change online, with recent efforts also developing approaches to decide which morphology to assume and automatically propagate that decision into the robot's motion planning and control. These approaches are powerful and increase adaptability in the field.
