Manipulating unseen articulated objects through visual feedback is a critical but challenging task for real robots. Existing learning-based solutions mainly focus on visual affordance learning or other pre-trained visual models to guide manipulation policies, which face challenges for novel instances in real-world scenarios. In this paper, we propose a novel part-guided 3D RL framework, which can learn to manipulate articulated objects without demonstrations. We combine the strengths of 2D segmentation and 3D RL to improve the efficiency of RL policy training. To improve the stability of the policy on real robots, we design a Frame-consistent Uncertainty-aware Sampling (FUS) strategy to get a condensed and hierarchical 3D representation. In addition, a single versatile RL policy can be trained on multiple articulated object manipulation tasks simultaneously in simulation and shows great generalizability to novel categories and instances. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework in both simulation and real-world settings.

Transparent and reflective objects, which are common in our everyday lives, present a significant challenge to 3D imaging techniques due to their unique visual and optical properties. Faced with these types of objects, RGB-D cameras fail to capture the real depth value with their accurate spatial information. To address this issue, we propose DITR, a diffusion-based Depth Inpainting framework specifically designed for Transparent and Reflective objects. This network consists of two stages, including a Region Proposal stage and a Depth Inpainting stage. DITR dynamically analyzes the optical and geometric depth loss and inpaints them automatically. Furthermore, comprehensive experimental results demonstrate that DITR is highly effective in depth inpainting tasks of transparent and reflective objects with robust adaptability.

Industrial anomaly detection (IAD) plays a crucial role in the maintenance and quality control of manufacturing processes. In this paper, we propose a novel approach, Vision-Language Anomaly Detection via Contrastive Cross-Modal Training (CLAD), which leverages large vision-language models (LVLMs) to improve both anomaly detection and localization in industrial settings. CLAD aligns visual and textual features into a shared embedding space using contrastive learning, ensuring that normal instances are grouped together while anomalies are pushed apart. Through extensive experiments on two benchmark industrial datasets, MVTec-AD and VisA, we demonstrate that CLAD outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both image-level anomaly detection and pixel-level anomaly localization. Additionally, we provide ablation studies and human evaluation to validate the importance of key components in our method. Our approach not only achieves superior performance but also enhances interpretability by accurately localizing anomalies, making it a promising solution for real-world industrial applications.
