BiGraspFormer: End-to-End Bimanual Grasp Transformer

Kangmin Kim, Seunghyeok Back, Geonhyup Lee et al.

Bimanual grasping is essential for robots to handle large and complex objects. However, existing methods either focus solely on single-arm grasping or employ separate grasp generation and bimanual evaluation stages, leading to coordination problems including collision risks and unbalanced force distribution. To address these limitations, we propose BiGraspFormer, a unified end-to-end transformer framework that directly generates coordinated bimanual grasps from object point clouds. Our key idea is the Single-Guided Bimanual (SGB) strategy, which first generates diverse single grasp candidates using a transformer decoder, then leverages their learned features through specialized attention mechanisms to jointly predict bimanual poses and quality scores. This conditioning strategy reduces the complexity of the 12-DoF search space while ensuring coordinated bimanual manipulation. Comprehensive simulation experiments and real-world validation demonstrate that BiGraspFormer consistently outperforms existing methods while maintaining efficient inference speed (<0.05s), confirming the effectiveness of our framework.

Leveraging Human-Machine Interactions for Computer Vision Dataset Quality Enhancement

Esla Timothy Anzaku, Hyesoo Hong, Jin-Woo Park et al.

Large-scale datasets for single-label multi-class classification, such as \emph{ImageNet-1k}, have been instrumental in advancing deep learning and computer vision. However, a critical and often understudied aspect is the comprehensive quality assessment of these datasets, especially regarding potential multi-label annotation errors. In this paper, we introduce a lightweight, user-friendly, and scalable framework that synergizes human and machine intelligence for efficient dataset validation and quality enhancement. We term this novel framework \emph{Multilabelfy}. Central to Multilabelfy is an adaptable web-based platform that systematically guides annotators through the re-evaluation process, effectively leveraging human-machine interactions to enhance dataset quality. By using Multilabelfy on the ImageNetV2 dataset, we found that approximately $47.88\%$ of the images contained at least two labels, underscoring the need for more rigorous assessments of such influential datasets. Furthermore, our analysis showed a negative correlation between the number of potential labels per image and model top-1 accuracy, illuminating a crucial factor in model evaluation and selection. Our open-source framework, Multilabelfy, offers a convenient, lightweight solution for dataset enhancement, emphasizing multi-label proportions. This study tackles major challenges in dataset integrity and provides key insights into model performance evaluation. Moreover, it underscores the advantages of integrating human expertise with machine capabilities to produce more robust models and trustworthy data development.
