Modern robotic perception increasingly involves large-scale geometric optimization problems distributed across multiple robots or sessions. However, existing distributed solvers often depend on brittle hand tuning and primarily target rigid body pose graphs. To address this, we present DeepCORD, a learning-augmented framework for distributed factor graph optimization on general matrix Lie groups. By unfolding a parallel and accelerated Riemannian optimizer into differentiable iterations, DeepCORD learns a self-supervised feedback policy that dynamically adapts solver parameters according to the optimization phase and communication status. The resulting method enables adaptive distributed optimization over matrix Lie groups under both synchronous and asynchronous communication regimes. Extensive experiments on real-world $\mathrm{SE}$(3) pose graph optimization and $\mathrm{SL}$(4) projective submap alignment show that our method achieves lower objective values than existing distributed baselines on most benchmarks across realistic operating scenarios.
Humanoid navigation in dynamic environments requires long-horizon planning while respecting short-horizon dynamic and safety constraints. Classical visibility-graph planners combined with model predictive control (MPC) can efficiently generate collision-free trajectories, but the…
Single-Robot Motion Planning (SRMP) in highly non-convex constrained environments, where robots must satisfy collision-free guarantees, dynamic feasibility, and task-related constraints, is challenging under complex constraints and computational limits. Recent Model-Based Diffusi…
Robots in cluttered indoor spaces often fail not because they cannot generate collision-free paths, but because a fixed safety margin is mis-calibrated: conservative margins cause detours and timeouts, while permissive margins lead to near-boundary shortcuts under perception bias…
End-to-end diffusion-based policies have demonstrated strong performance in mapless visual navigation, but their iterative denoising process introduces substantial inference latency, while behavior cloning limits performance to the quality of expert demonstrations. We present Nav…
Learning is increasingly introduced into visual-inertial odometry (VIO), ranging from learned feature front-ends to learning-dominant motion and geometry estimation. However, learning more of the pipeline does not necessarily improve robustness when deployment conditions differ f…
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models excel at end-to-end robotic manipulation but struggle with out-of-distribution (OOD) generalization when familiar sub-tasks are recombined in unseen configurations. We identify two mutually reinforcing failure modes: \emph{trajectory overfittin…
