MAER-Nav: Bidirectional Motion Learning Through Mirror-Augmented Experience Replay for Robot Navigation

Kavli Affiliate: Biao Huang | First 5 Authors: Shanze Wang, Mingao Tan, Zhibo Yang, Biao Huang, Xiaoyu Shen | Summary: Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) based navigation methods have demonstrated promising results for mobile robots, but suffer from limited action flexibility in confined spaces. Conventional DRL approaches predominantly learn forward-motion policies, causing robots to become trapped […]

StrokeFusion: Vector Sketch Generation via Joint Stroke-UDF Encoding and Latent Sequence Diffusion

Kavli Affiliate: Yi Zhou | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: In the field of sketch generation, raster-format trained models often produce non-stroke artifacts, while vector-format trained models typically lack a holistic understanding of sketches, leading to compromised recognizability. Moreover, existing methods struggle to extract common features from similar elements (e.g., eyes […]

Giant Graviton Correlators as Defect Systems

Kavli Affiliate: Xinan Zhou | First 5 Authors: Junding Chen, Yunfeng Jiang, Xinan Zhou, , | Summary: We consider correlation functions of two maximal giant gravitons and two light $frac{1}{2}$-BPS operators in 4d $mathcal{N}=4$ SYM. Viewed as two-point correlators in the presence of a zero dimensional defect, they can be completely fixed at strong coupling […]
