Skills can improve the performance of Large Language Model (LLM) agents by providing task-specific procedural guidance, while skill optimization further improves their effectiveness through iterative refinement. However, existing skill optimization methods typically represent skills as unstructured ...

3D object detection from LiDAR point clouds faces a fundamental dilemma: voxel-based methods achieve efficiency at the cost of geometric quantization, while point-based methods preserve fidelity but suffer from prohibitive computational bottlenecks. Specifically, point-based architectures are crippl...

Despite the remarkable progress in Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs), prevailing Chain-of-Thought (CoT) paradigms remain confined to the natural-language expression space. Consequently, they inherently incur excessive linguistic overhead, leading to information dilution and weak visual ground...

Computer-use agents (CUAs) have advanced along two separate lines: graphical interaction and software development through code and the command line. Real digital work requires both, interleaved rather than stacked end to end. We study hybrid CUAs that autonomously decide when to explore an interface...

Farmer.Chat is Digital Green's farm advisory service for smallholder farmers. When something looks wrong with a crop, the farmer takes a photograph and sends it, and that photograph is the whole question: no symptom described, no crop named, often no text at all. The service has to determine whether...

We present MintAct, a family of vision-language models that unifies UI grounding, multi-step navigation across mobile, desktop, and web, and visual tool use, trained at 2B, 4B, and 8B scales. Through careful design of our environments, data, and training recipes, MintAct models match the performance...

Traffic sign recognition (TSR) is an important perception task for autonomous driving and advanced driver-assistance systems, where a system must both localize traffic signs and determine their semantic classes efficiently. This work presents a TSR system based on YOLOv2 for simultaneous detection a...

Training capable coding agents via reinforcement learning (RL) requires diverse tasks with reliable verifiers. Open-source codebases offer a rich source of such tasks, while existing methods typically rely on development artifacts such as issues and commits, limiting the range of tasks that can be e...

Safe whole-body control requires coordinating collision avoidance and balance under high-dimensional, nonlinear dynamics--making safety certificates difficult to design and reuse across behaviors. We present LIMBO, a framework for synthesizing a state-action control barrier function and distilling i...

Quadrupedal robots are increasingly deployed in environments where locomotion must remain robust to disturbances and constrained terrain. Gait type, such as walking or trotting, is commonly used to characterize quadrupedal locomotion. However, gait type does not uniquely define locomotion, as parame...
