In robotic grasping, objects are often occluded in ungraspable configurations such that no pregrasp pose can be found, eg large flat boxes on the table that can only be grasped from the side. Inspired by humans' bimanual manipulation, eg…
This paper considers the problem of grasp pose detection in point clouds. We follow a general algorithmic structure that first generates a large set of 6-DOF grasp candidates and then classifies each of them as a good or a bad grasp. Our…
Currently, task-oriented grasp detection approaches are mostly based on pixel-level affordance detection and semantic segmentation. These pixel-level approaches heavily rely on the accuracy of a 2D affordance mask, and the generated grasp…
Current robotic grasping methods often rely on estimating the pose of the target object, explicitly predicting grasp poses, or implicitly estimating grasp success probabilities. In this work, we propose a novel approach that directly maps…

Robotic arm grasping is a fundamental operation in robotic control task goals. Most current methods for robotic grasping focus on RGB-D policy in the table surface scenario or 3D point cloud analysis and inference in the 3D space. Comparing…
Dexterous robotic manipulation requires more than geometrically valid grasps: it demands physically grounded contact strategies that account for the spatially non-uniform mechanical properties of the object. However, existing grasp planners…
