The author announced a last-minute cancellation of their RSS 2026 trip, but their students, collaborators, and postdocs will present 4 papers on their behalf. Times are in Sydney time:
- Simulation Distillation: Pre-training world models in simulated environments for faster real-world adaptation.
- TMRL: Pre-training via diffusion model timestep modulation to boost exploration efficiency and enable more efficient policy fine-tuning.
- PolaRiS: Proposing a scalable real-to-sim evaluation method for generalist robot policies.
- Robometer: Scaling general robot reward models through trajectory comparisons.
Additionally, they mentioned checking out JesseYZhang's presentation at the RSS pioneers poster session.
