Human videos are a scalable source of supervision for robot manipulation, as they are abundant and naturally capture rich object interactions. However, transferring human demonstrations to robots remains challenging due to embodiment mismatch, scene variation, and robot-specific feasibility constraints. We present Human2Any, a framework for learning reusable object-centric interaction priors from human videos without requiring real-world robot demonstrations in the target task contexts. Human2Any represents manipulation through object-object interaction motion, capturing task-relevant scene changes while abstracting away embodiment-specific details. It composes learned interaction priors with robot-side feasibility reasoning and motion planning, allowing the same human-derived knowledge to adapt to different embodiments, scene geometries, and task contexts. We validate Human2Any across diverse manipulation settings, including real-world experiments on a Franka tabletop setup and an RBY-1 humanoid mobile robot, demonstrating robust interaction-centric manipulation without real-world robot training data.

Effective social robot navigation requires sensitivity to human behavior, often revealed through subtle skeletal cues like gait and orientation. We present Human-Aware Implicit Social Robot Navigation (HumAIN), a novel framework that fuses implicit social cues directly into the p…
Diffusion policies have shown strong potential for robotic imitation learning, and recent extensions incorporate additional modalities to improve manipulation performance. However, these modalities often differ not only in information content but also in sensing rates and inferen…
Spatiotemporal motion planning, especially in multi-robot settings, requires robots to reason about collision-free regions that change over time, which is challenging in continuous spaces when feasible regions are transient and geometrically constrained. We present an algorithmic…
Egocentric human data offers scalable supervision for robot manipulation. However, behavior cloning entangles transferable content like objects, scenes, and task semantics, with non-transferable factors like human morphology, head motion, and behavioral style. We study whether Wo…
While personalisation is becoming a defining capability in human-robot interaction (HRI), the existing literature on responsible personalisation remains fragmented, offering isolated accounts of ethical risks without a structured understanding of how they emerge across interactio…
Trajectory planning is a fundamental problem in robotics, requiring the generation of collision-free and efficient trajectories in a potentially complex environment. While sampling-based planners remain the dominant approach, they are often computationally expensive, particularly…
