aiqbench analysis
The paper proposes a two-stage learned system for transferring human motion to robots with different body structures: one network generates robot-compatible reference motions, and a shared policy executes them with closed-loop reinforcement learning. The reported results are benchmark numbers on four humanoid platforms, and the 1% target-data adaptation figure is the most practically relevant claim for readers who care about data efficiency. Whether the approach generalizes beyond these four embodiments and simulated or lab conditions remains to be seen.
SHARE: Sharing Human Actions across Robot Embodiments through Unified Retargeting and Tracking
arXiv:2601.07284v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The central challenge in reusing human actions across robots is the need to realize shared intent through incompatible kinematics, dynamics, and control interfaces. We present SHARE, which decomposes action sharing into two connected stages---reference generation and feedback execution---and uses native robot references as their interface to achieve shared structure, native realization. In the reference-generation stage, AdaMorph extracts human-motion intent with a shared temporal backbone and generates embodiment-compatible references through robot-conditioned decoding. In the feedback-execution stage, AdaTrack combines these references with proprioception, action history, and morphology, then uses variable-length dynamic representations, morphology-conditioned attention, expert distillation, and closed-loop reinforcement learning to emit native actions from one shared Actor. On G1, HI, AD, and T1, AdaMorph attains seen/unseen root-speed Pearson correlation coefficients (PCCs) of 0.951/0.894; AdaTrack reaches 94.00%/91.96% closed-loop Success Rate with 21.15% of the total parameters in four specialist Actors, while cross-embodiment pretraining improves seen/unseen adaptation by 9.67/13.62 points with only 1% target data.
